WHY is that considered boring and unsellable? All kinds of people, settings from wilderness to cities and everything in between, a wide variety of social acceptances (for women working and owning shops, for instance), a number of wars, scandals, get-rich-quick opportunities, and a bunch of true events that cry out for novelization. And on the plus side, plenty of items and places have been preserved, so you can actually go see how and where they lived--and much more easily than, say, a medieval castle or Highland village.
