It is alternate history, but the 1632 series by Eric Flint has a great deal of historical research behind it. It is science fiction that has a 20th century Verginia coal mining town transported into the middle of the 30 years war. The character development is extremely good, and all of the history I have been able to check is correct. > > Sarah Van Oosterwijck > curious entity at earthlink dot net > > >
