Whether fictional characters are involved in real historical events (Margaret Mitchell's "Gone With the Wind") or the work revolves around people who actually lived (Thomas Keneally's "The Playmakers"), historical literature lets its audience relive life in an era vastly different from the reader's own.

Now in its 3rd edition, Twentieth-Century Romance and Historical Writers is greatly expanded to include historical fiction writers as well as those of romance. This reference profiles more than 500 authors who have made significant contributions to romance and historical writing during this century.
