  <default_description>From the master of alternate history comes an epic of the second Civil War. It was an epoch of glory and success, of disaster and despair. . . .&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1881: A generation after the South won the Civil War, America writhed once more in the bloody throes of battle. Furious over the annexation of key Mexican territory, the United States declared total war against the Confederate States of America in 1881. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But this was a new kind of war, fought on a lawless frontier where the blue and gray battled not only each other but the Apache, the outlaw, the French, and the English. As Confederate General Stonewall Jackson again demonstrated his military expertise, the North struggled to find a leader who could prove his equal. In the Second War Between the States, the times, the stakes, and the battle lines had changed--and so would history. . .

This book is a prequel to the Great War trilogy.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Interesting premise and very well written. The book is a little on the long side, but the characters are so well drawn and believeable that it keeps you involved.<br/><br/>The alternate-history is handled as if there was no other way for it to have happened, which really strenghtens the believibli...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/28985946">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I love alternative history and historical fiction.  I really tried to enjoy this novel, I really wanted to.  I forced myself through over 100 pages before throwing in the towel.  Turtledove's level of alternative historical detail is so intense that it's at the expense of the plot and the characters...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5345929">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This novel started my down hill spiral into the abyss of alternate history, from which I have yet to pull myself.  Think about the ramifications of Lee's invasion of the North actually succeeding?  Harry Turtledove did and it lead to ten more novels, each averaging over 600 pages.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is probably my favorite alternate history Turtledove book.  I've always liked the his good use of historical characters, and the time period in whick it is set (1880's mostly in the Eastern US) is overlooked.<br/>Camels, Jeb Stuart, Fredrick Douglass and more!]]></body>
