<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>""One of the most ingenious parallel world stories ever written." -- Richard A. Lupoff. In this acclaimed work of alternate history, the South claims victory after defeating the Union army at the Battle of Gettysburg. In the mid-20th century, people now live under the constant threat of war between the Confederacy and its bitter rival, the German Union. Can a young scholar travel back in time to reset the path and save the future?"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"One of the most ingenious parallel world stories ever written." -- Richard A. Lupoff<br /><br /> What if Robert E. Lee won the Battle of Gettysburg and his army went on to capture Philadelphia? What if the United States government was forced to recognize Confederate independence?<br /> In this acclaimed work of alternative history, the wealthy and prosperous Confederacy is a superpower, locked into a bitter struggle with its European rival, the German Union. The United States, conversely, is utterly destitute, a sinkhole of lawlessness and corruption. Technology, too, has taken a different turn, as the twentieth-century world travels by stagecoach, communicates by telegraph, and reads by gaslight. But when a young inventor who's experimenting with time travel encounters an amateur historian, the stage is set for a return to a critical point in American history.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>American science-fiction author Ward Moore (1903-78) wrote book reviews, articles, and short stories for magazines and newspapers, including <i>Harper's Bazaar, </i><i>The Nation, </i>and <i>The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. </i>In addition to <i>Bring the Jubilee, </i> his most famous work, he wrote the novel <i>Greener Than You Think </i>and the post-apocalyptic short stories "Lot" and "Lot's Daughter."
