I'm not a great reader of historical fiction; it's not my favourite genre.

I love general history. That's all I read really. I don't read novels, I read history. I love it. I live in an area that's really rich in Civil War history. I live in Kentucky on a farm. A lot of revolution, a lot of military history I love.

I actually love history. I've devoured book after book of stories from World War I and World War II. They're really two sections of world history that really interest me.

I just love historical fiction.

I tend to like to read history - recent history, because I find that much more intriguing than just a writer's imagination.

I like fiction and the kind of history that gives the grace and flavor of fiction to the past. No bloviation on current events, please. I can write that junk myself.

I love to read history books, which is where I get my ideas. I also read historical romance for pleasure.

I like reading about the past. I'm definitely not a history buff, but I do read a bit of history now and again, and to do that for work is really exciting.

As an author of narrative history, I read a lot of history books.
