Is Gulliver's Travels a historical fiction? What are some Good historical fiction books?

Question

please help

Answer 1

In order for a book to be deemed historical fiction, it has to be about a time prior to the time in which it was written. When Jonathan Swift wrote Gulliver's Travels it took place in current times, therefore, it is not really historical fiction.

Here's a list of some pretty good historical fiction books:

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zaphon
The Birth of Venus by Sarah Dunant
Trilogy: The Dark Queen, The Courtesan, and The Silver Rose by Susan Carroll
One Thousand White Women by Jim Fergus

Good luck!
