Seeking literary suggestions "historic novels"
I have a read a few novels with some historical basis that I really enjoyed -- Rain of Gold, Daughter of Hummingbird, Headless Angel. Does anyone have any others to suggest? I am particularly interested with novels set around the time of the independence movement or the revolution or the Mexican / American war. Also any set in the US around the time of the Civil War, etc. Thanks so much.

"In the Shadow of the Angel" by Kathryn S. Blair is a novel based on real people and set during the time of the M?xican Revolution. The translation into Spanish was widely sold in M?xico, but the self-published English version is harder to find.
