A SELECTED LIST OF AMERICAN HISTORICAL FICTION
(Copied from _Journal of Education_ for March 27, 1913)
This list attempts to cover American history from colonial times to the
close of the Civil War. Not all the books are of literary merit; they
have been chosen primarily with regard to their historical interest,
although many of them are of the first rank as literature. As the list
is not exhaustive, many good historical novels have probably been
omitted:
I. COLONIAL PERIOD
Austin. _Standish of Standish; Betty Alden._
Cooper. _The Water Witch; Leatherstocking Tales._
Devereux. _From Kingdom to Colony._
Hawthorne. _The Scarlet Letter._
Johnston. _To Have and to Hold; Prisoners of Hope; Audrey._
Rayner. _Free to Serve._
II. REVOLUTIONARY PERIOD
Altsheler. _In Hostile Red; The Sun of Saratoga._
Brady. _The Grip of Honor; For Love of Country._
Chambers. _Cardigan; The Reckoning._
Churchill. _Richard Carvel._
Cooper. _The Spy; The Pilot._
Ford. _Janice Meredith._
Mitchell. _Hugh Wynne, Free Quaker._
Simms. _The Partisan._
