As described in that first post, not going just from the proposed title, I think we could get lots of historical fiction, we could get alternative histories, we could get time-travel science fiction mainly set in the past (Connie Willis or Eric Flint come to mind), we could even get paranormal books like "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter" which interweaves a paranormal story around real-life things that happened in and prior to the US Civil War.

I suggest simply
Based on a True Story. I don't like the use of the word
historical, because it seems to limit the category to rather grand events or persons.
