Historical Fiction Book Club

I just wanted to gauge interest in a discussion group for Historical Fiction novels or series.
I tend to read that genre all the time and it would be nice to get others input on them.
Should I just start a thread on each book or do something like the ECB threads?
Thanks

Start a thread for each book. It's not like this board has too much activity to handle it.

I would be interested, though I have a lot of outstanding books on my plate.
What would be a good example of this, "an instance of the fingerpost?"

I am a fan of Jeff Shaara. I just finished Rise to Rebellion, and am now reading The Glorious Cause. They are novels of the American Revolution.

Mexico and Hawaii are both fantastic novels

Centennial is amazing if you love the region (Colorado).
I want to read Texas and Space.
The Source was reccommended to me on here years ago and it was a great way to tell a story.
If I ever write a book thia author will be a huge influence.

Herman Wouk has some great ones in this genre...Winds of War/War and Remembrance series some of my favorites ever if you are into WWII
Eta: and if you like those, The Hope goes into the creation of the State of Israel

Would LOVE to do a group read/discussion of Winds of War and then W&R on here if anyone is interested.
I started a thread on here a few weeks back asking about them and went ahead and bought both books.
I haven't started yet as I am currently reading Undaunted Courage about Louis and Clark, but would be game if we want to make it a thing.

I'm thinking of starting the HFBC off with a reading of the Flashman Papers.
