I also recommend Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell and the North and South series by John Jakes, each of which gave me insights into the American Civil War. I particularly liked that many of the characters were healers. It covers a family who leaves England for America and owns a successful horse farm. If you can get these, I also recommend the Swan Trilogy by Celeste De Blasis which includes Wild Swan, Swan's Chance, and a Season of Swans. Penman also has a series of five books called the Plantagenet Series which begins with When Christ and his Saints Slept, and her standalone book on Richard III called The Sunne in Splendour comes highly recommended.
