Well, I really like 'The Christmas Box' by Richard Paul Evans. It's a heartwarming tale set in a historical time period. It deals with themes of family, love, and the true meaning of Christmas. Then there's 'The Miracle of 34th Street'. It's about a man who claims to be Santa Claus at Macy's in New York, with a historical backdrop that gives it a special charm. Oh, and 'Skipping Christmas' by John Grisham, which shows how a couple decides to skip Christmas and the historical and social implications of that in a fictional small - town setting.

The best historical fiction Christmas books include 'A Christmas Memory' by Truman Capote. It beautifully captures a simpler time in American history, with its focus on the relationship between a young boy and an older relative during Christmas. 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' by C.S. Lewis can also be considered in this category. The Narnia series has a historical feel, and the Christmas scene in this book is both magical and gives a sense of the values of the time. And don't forget 'The Night Before Christmas', an old - time favorite that gives a great look at the traditional Christmas spirit in a historical context.

Many of them would likely blend real historical events with fictional characters or storylines. So, you could have a story set during a real war, like the Napoleonic Wars, but the main characters could be fictional people whose lives are intertwined with the events of the war. This creates a more immersive experience for the reader as they get to see the big historical events from a more personal perspective.
