50 Historical Novels

Novels from the historical fiction genre don't show up all that often on those "100 books you MUST read before you die" according to whomever lists, but it's always been a genre dear to my heart and deserving of it's rightful place among the greats. Here are some wonderful historical novels that anyone interested in the genre should read.
