    17th century Scotland and Post WWII, I would suggest "Outlander" by Diana Gabaldon. It's my very favorite book of all-time AND it features time travel!!

    Time and Again by Jack Finney is a great Time Travel novel that has wonderfully convincing recreations of the New York City of the 1880s and the New York City of the late 1960s. I really recommend it to anyone! =D
