What exactly, in today's publishing environment, constitutes "historical fiction"? I'm finishing a novel set around 1850 in frontier America, but I never considered it to fit into the "historical fiction" category, and I'm not at all sure I could query it using that term. But maybe i'm misconstruing what the term now means. I just don't know. Surely it's more than just a matter of historical setting. But maybe i'm wrong about that, too. Your views?
