The same way you write any other story - plant your butt in a chair and get started!
With historical fiction, though, you want to be sure you do a lot of research on the period of history you're writing about - pick that era and start looking around the internet, the library, and even around your own neighborhood if you have anyone who lived through that period of history! Historical fiction readers are very picky about facts, and will stop reading your work if you have it wrong.
Here are some good links for you, too.
