The Life and Times of Richard III - Anthony Cheethamīlood & Roses: the Paston Family in the Fifteenth Century - Helen Castor The Tower of London - Peter Hammond (this is a guidebook!) But technically, they're still considered non-fiction.ĮTA: Non-fiction books on the second page, in addition to those mentioned in the previous post: Granted, some of these, such as all books by Weir and Licence, take so many liberties with the facts, especially when their authors write as if they have a direct mental link to the people who lived 500 years ago and know exactly how they felt, that they may as well be considered fiction.
