Bob Faser The Better Angels of our Nature

Produktbeskrivelse

What if Abraham Lincoln chose not to go to war to preserve the Union? What if Lincoln lived to his 80s, including a number of years spent in Britain and Australia? What if the vast land area between Mexico and Canada was, from 1861 to 1926, the location of not one, nor two, but five different nations? What if both slavery and polygamy persisted in the Empire of Texas for a generation longer than they did anywhere else in North America? What if such Europeans as Florence Nightingale, Alfred Dreyfus, and Dickens's "Tiny Tim" all spent time on the North American continent? What if those who died during the Spanish Influenza epidemic in 1918 included a psychiatric patient in a Georgia hospital named John Wilkes Booth and an inmate in a prisoner-of-war camp in Pennsylvania named Adolf Hitler?
