Fantasies as re-imagined history

Right now on Black Gate magazine: Mucking with the Mundane, my take on fantasies set in alternate historical periods.
How do authors get readers to abandon what they know about what already happened and take a ride with the fantastical?
I look at Moorcock’s Gloriana, Card’s Alvin Maker series and such works as Novik’s Temeraire series.
If you haven’t checked out the excellent Black Gate: Adventures in Fantasy Literature, try it now!
