I, Megan Barrett, have chosen the book “Fever 1793”.
There are many historically accurate writings in this novel. Matilda's grandfather would talk about and spread his stories about himself being part of George Washington’s army during the Revolutionary war. This is accurate because the Revolutionary war was from April 19th, 1775 to the official end of the war, September 3rd, 1783 when the Treaty of Paris was signed. This story time is 1793 therefore I can see how Matilda’s grandfather would still tell about how the war was due to it only being 10 years since the end of the war.
Another historically accurate detail in the novel is they had Eliza working around the house and the coffee shop. Eliza was African but she was not a slave due
