A generation after the South won the first American civil War, America writhes once more in the bloody throes of battle. The novel ends with the close of the war in 1882, and a setup for the sequel, which takes place in 1914. I'm afraid I read this one out of order. First of all, I have a problem with the plausibility of the premise. Just imagine the disaster that would have befallen those brave Southern boys had that document fallen into Yankee hands! Along with losing the war, the U.S. loses, in fighting with Britain, the northern part of After U.S. defeat in the Second Mexican War, President Blaine declares April 22 of every succeeding year to be The United States moves its center of government from In order to receive assistance from both Great Britain and France, Confederate President Longstreet is obliged to propose a After losing two wars within twenty years, the United States began an alliance with the strengthening The novel is narrated from the point of view of eight historical figures, four of whom died before 1881 in Take your favorite fandoms with you and never miss a beat. Science Fiction and Fantasy do this to an even greater extent (What if a scientist was able to re-animate a human corpse using lightning?)
As a result, the North wins Antietam, England and France comes in on the Union side, and the South ultimately loses the war. 0345406141 I'd read one of his other novels, Guns of the South, in which time travellers bring the AK-47 to the Confederacy, allowing them to win the Civil War.This is the first book in Harry Turtledove's alternate history TL-191 (Timeline-191) series, which consists of this stand-alone volume, plus two further trilogies, the American Front series and the American Empire series.This is the first book in Harry Turtledove's alternate history TL-191 (Timeline-191) series, which consists of this stand-alone volume, plus two further trilogies, the American Front series and the American Empire series.At first I was disappointed that the book focused almost exclusively on historical people, because I was interested in imagining what life would be like for the common person if the South had won the Civil War. are two big ones many people have wondered about. The US claims that the sale was invalid and goes to war, and a second Civil War is fought with weaponry that the US normally would not have seen until WWI. Historic characters include Stonewall Jackson, Lincoln, Geronimo, Teddy Roosevelt, Frederick Douglas, George Custer, Mark Twain (Sam Clemons here - he's a journalist not a novelist), and my favorite: Baron Von Schlieffen.
Buffalo bones littered the prairie south of Fort Dodge, Kansas. Mercy!Dr Harry Norman Turtledove is an American novelist, who has produced a sizeable number of works in several genres including alternate history, historical fiction, fantasy and science fiction.Dr Harry Norman Turtledove is an American novelist, who has produced a sizeable number of works in several genres including alternate history, historical fiction, fantasy and science fiction.“Thought was slower than anger to flower into action, but it was a hardy perennial. Fantastic book. Revisionist history about if the South had won? I do wish there had been some female perspectives as well, but I understand why there were not because of the tight military and political focus, mostly on men who survived the previous conflict--or on rising stars, such as Theodore Roosevelt. just change the world to suit!While well-written, deeply descriptive, and obviously thoroughly researched - the novel left me feeling just ho-hum. FREAKING LONGSTREET FOR PRESIDENT?!?!?! I'm actually a little shocked that I hadn't read this before. I recommend the entire 11 book saga. And some people fall in love with books about falling in love. As a person who enjoys history, this book is an absolute treat.
Probably the best in the seriesA highly-enjoyable and thoroughly-researched alt history jaunt that explores the repercussions of a Confederate victory during the Civil War. It's now 1881, the USA and CSA are close to war again, and some figures that didn't survive our history are very much, vividly alive here and still going: George Armstrong Custer, still fighting Indians, and Stonewall Jackson, now leading the Confederate army under President James Longstreet. If the Confederates don't get thrashed in the next book I'm done.
The major part of this book takes place in 1881, when the CSA purchases the states of Sonora and Chihuahua from Mexico, enabling Fun alternative history! Seriously? A newspaper editor in San Francisco.
