Supposing you're asked by a beginning writer which books he should read to improve his skills in writing fantasy, you might say Tolkien's, and similarly, you might say Asimov's for scifi, etc.

I'd like to write an historical fiction. Which authors/titles would you recommend as "study material"? Not solely popular stuff, but also material from which I can actually learn the craft.

I would say that lucky for you the best book I have ever read also happens to be historical fiction. I think that The Book Thief is a fantastic historical fiction book, and after reading it, I think my perspective of writing was turned upside down. There is a very interesting use of figurative language, so I would absolutely have to recommend reading it.
