Over 5000 historical Novels Listed by Time and Place - 1 views

    This is a really handy website which I use both personally and professionally. I am really keen on the idea of using fiction to help teach history. I think reading historical fiction helps bring history 'alive' and stimulates an interest in finding out more. Even if the book is not 100% correct it doesn't matter as discovering this is part of the learning process and encourages critical thinking.

    This is a place where you can find information for books, add book details - ratings, comments etc, organise and sort book collections, share information with others and more. I find it very useful and I am sure it would be for any library user.
