I picked up my first Edward Rutherfurd read in the gift shop at Sarum. It was, appropriately, entitled Sarum and tells the history of Sarum [Old Salisbury] and the region from the Stone Age on thru five families. If you like your history fed to you fictionalized, you'll love Rutherfurd.
These books really remind how big a role religion played in everything--including internal and external wars--in Western history. It really drives home what an important [and Enlightened] decision the Founding Fathers made to separate church and state.

I see he's got a new one out on New York I'll have to pick up.
