Oh, it is so awesome to have you on this topic! I’m so grateful for your straightforwardness and honesty. I really admire that in you! I want to write like a super long reply, but I don’t have a ton of time right now, so I will just say that one of the best his-fic (like, very historically accurate, amazing) authors I know of is G A Henty. His books are absolutely awesome, and they span hundreds of years, from ancient to the end of the 19th century. Multiple of them are set in places/time eras that you mentioned, and I especially enjoyed his books set in your country. 🙂
I have read all of his books at least 2-3 times thus far, and every time I read back through, I learn SO much more. If you want to read them online or print them off, you can go to http://www.gutenburg.org and they have them for free. There is a wealth of literature and history on that site you can browse if you want, as well. It is non-profit, and you have full access to thousands of books. I have found it to be a tremendous blessing. There is a place to start anyways. 😀
Praying God blesses you on this journey, Linda!
