Harry Turtledove has a knack for capturing the attitudes of those long gone in many of his alternate history novels. He continues to feed my insatiable appetite for great novels with a touch of History and a dab of What If. Harry Turtledove has inspired me numerous times over again to search through history as I read his numerous Alternate History stories. He ignites the passion to learn about our timeline of history and his alternate one, and the connections and correlations between the two. For any reader interested in General Lee as a person, Turtledove explores his personality and reveals a great deal for the reasons he takes the path he does in our timeline. As always Enjoy!
