Transportation

Read Psalms 65-68

Psalms 68:17 "The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place."

Getting our characters from one place to another can be awkward to describe. But no matter how much or how little detail we use, we will want to find out what kind of transportation was available, especially for historical novels.

And not only what was available, but what most people used. Even if cars had been invented, not everyone ran out and bought them.

So we will want to know what was popular at the time, too. Even a story written in contemporary times needs accuracy about what kinds of cars, buses, planes, etc., and what features and restrictions there are.
