4 wars are missing - 1812, 1846, 1861, Spanish-American

It seems to me that there should be a category for other things in the 19th century in addition to the Victorian age. The U. S. was in two ways before the Civil War, and also involvd in the Spanish-American War of the 1890s.

I write novels set during the American Civil War, but they don't seem to be in demand at the present time. Maybe I will live long enough to see the demand return. Things do run in cycles.

Yeah but they all took place in the Victorian age, with the exception of 1812, that is usualy under Napoleonic.

Feel free to start a thread if there's a particular era or war you wish to discuss relevant to historical fiction that's not covered in the broad subcategories.

David Nevin wrote a few novels in the time periods that you mention
