Re: US Civil War

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Killer_Angels calls it a historical novel. I see it's also the book that was adapted into the movie "Gettysburg". Sounds like a great choice to me!

Wikipedia has a whole category for Civil War novels, too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:American_Civil_War_novels

Oh... DUH. Of course we have to have Gone With the Wind.

Actually, that sounds like an awesome set of books to me. Little Women (contemporary), GWTW (1939), Killer Angels (1974), March (rewriting of Little Women), The Wind Done Gone (rewriting of GWTW).
