Best series I've read is Eric Flint's "1632," which is alternate history with a touch of science fiction. It's about a small West Virginia town that gets transported back to Germany during the Thirty Years' War. They get involved in the conflict with a handful of modern weaponry, but use their resources to mass produce 19th century type guns, and eventually build some Civil War-era ironclads as the basis for their navy. They also introduce modern style American politics into that era. It's an amazing series that has both sequels and offshoots, including contributions from other authors. I was reading them when they orginally came out years ago but got sidetracked. I eventually plan to reread the entire series.
Sounds like the illegitimate butt-baby of the MTV and PT boards.
