Historical fiction?
Yeah loaded question to say the least lol
I don’t think any of the post is right. I have read the Bible cover to cover a couple of times. And it is very much not non-fiction. Maybe OP hasn’t read it and didn’t know.
Well, the Bible.
Not the Holy Bible, the one by Kernighan & Ritchie.
If there were any books that were like the Bible to me, I’d never want to read them again, and consider them the worst examples of fiction I’ve ever read.
You vastly overestimate my esteem for the Bible
You mean reference books?
In my line of work, the “Bible” is the Chicago Manual of Style. It is the deciding factor of what is “right” in editing.
I own two full copies of encyclopedia Britannica, 1897 and 1978
Video Game manuals, specially if they have pretty art designs.
National Geographic Kids Almanac. Read them as a kid and I learned a lot from them.
Also the dictionary. I need to make sure I use my shiny new hard words the right way.
“The subtle art of not giving a f*ck”
“The 7 habits of highly effective people” - this one in particular.
