A personal favorite of mine is the historical fantasy The Dragon Waiting, by John M. Ford. It's got some fantastical elements, but the politics and personalities are spot on.
Ford's also got a delightful War of the Roses poem, where a series of Elizabethan and Jacobean playwrights play each of the kings.
