Who is this Robert E. Lee person? How Much Background Information is Really Needed in Historical Fiction
Writers of SF and mysteries based set in historical periods or of alternate histories have to maintain a fine line between supplying enough information that the reader understands the situation but not so much as to insult most of the readers. Does a writer need to explain what Gettysburg was? How about the Little Round Top? How about who Robert E. Lee was? |
