I have written only two historical fiction books. The first was "Sara, a Canadian Saga" which is a portrayal of a family's life during and post the depression years. At the outset, the story's setting is in the Maritime provinces and, later, as the story progresses, the family's saga continues in the province of Ontario. Sara was my very first novel written quite a few years ago. I'm happy to say that Sara is still enjoying sales on Amazon. Sara is available in kindle, paperback, and audiobook formats. https://www.amazon.ca/Sara.../dp/1492848697/ref=sr_1_1...
My second historical novel is "When God Gives Us Spring". I spent a tremendous amount of time researching prior to writing this book. I've loved writing all my books, but I don't mind admitting that "When God Gives Us Spring" is one of my favourites. I hope it can be a favourite of yours too and I hope you'll check it out.
