Not a novel?

In my view, Astoria is more history or travel documentary than novel. As described in the article, the book is backed up by a significant amount of documentation. Although some of this information may be inaccurate, Washington Irving's intent was to create a truthfil account of the land and sea voyages. This book does not belong in the Wikiproject Novels. --Dr Dobeaucoup (talk) 06:50, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
