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.
