American Empire by Harry Turtledove

American Empire by Harry Turtledove

Harry Turtledove's acclaimed alternate history series began with a single question: what if the South had won the American Civil War Now, seventy years have passed since the first War Between the States. The North American continent is locked in a battle of politics, economies and moralities. In a world that has already felt the soul-shattering blow of the Great War, North America in 1934 is the powder keg that could ignite another global conflict - complete with a new generation of killing machines. The Victorious Opposition is a drama of leaders and followers, spies and traitors, lovers and soldiers. From California to Canada, from combat on the high seas to the secret meetings where former slaves plot a desperate strategy for survival, Harry Turtledove has created a human portrait of a world in upheaval.

Good fun. It has an authentic speculative quality, energy and dash - TIME OUT (about WORLD OF DIFFERENCE)
