The bitter strife between the Confederate States of America, the victors in the Civil War, and the United States continues as they take opposite sides in the growing turmoil of the First World War - Baker & Taylor
The bitter strife between the Confederate States of America, the victors in the Civil War, and the United States continues as they take opposite sides in the growing turmoil threatening to engulf Europe during the First World War, in an action-packed alternate history saga by the author ofThe Guns of the South. - Blackwell North Amer
Harry Turtledove's Great War saga plunges us deeper into the war that began in Europe, then exploded with a vengeance onto American soil.
The world is convulsing. Germany has smashed its enemies: Austria, Denmark, and France, while the United States and the Confederate States of America charge headlong into the global conflict - as bitter enemies once again.
The year is 1915, and the time of darkness has come. Though the Confederacy has defeated its northern enemy twice in fifty years, this time the United States has allied with Prussia. In the South, the freed slaves, fueled by Marxist rhetoric and the bitterness of a racist nation, take up the weapons of the Bolshevik rebellion. Despite these advantages, the United States remains pinned between Canada and the C.S.A., so the bloody conflict continues and grows. Both presidents - Theodore Roosevelt of the Union and staunch Confederate Woodrow Wilson - are stubbornly determined to lead their nations to victory, at any cost.
While land and sea battles are fought around the globe, new killing tools - poison gas, submarines, attack planes, and tanks - are pressed into service. Heroism and fear run hand in hand as ordinary men and women - families, friends, and lovers - choose desperate measures just to survive.
Once again, Harry Turtledove has created a portrait of how, if history had but taken another path, our world would have launched into a much bloodier War to End All Wars. - Random House, Inc.

From the trenches that line the Canadian border to occupied Salt Lake City, The Great War: Walk in Hell takes us to the American front, then into prisoner-of-war camps, strategy meetings, and cities roiling with unrest. Once again, Harry Turtledove--"the leading author of alternate history" (USA Today)--has created a gripping, visionary portrait of how, if history had but taken another path, our world would have launched into a much bloodier War to End All Wars.
