Sounds RIGHT up my alley.
Best historical fiction novel EVER is New York: A Novel by Edward Rutherfurd...900 some odd pages of the BEST historical fiction I've ever read!

Re: great book alert
I love historical novels - will definitely pick this one up.
If anyone is interested, read 'Shanghai Girls' by Lisa See (I think). I read it on the way home from the honeymoon - the whole book. It was a pretty easy read, but also historical and very touching about the relationship between sisters.
