Opis

After the success of Blumetti's highly popular book, "What If?," he has written "What If?--Two." Blumetti once again stretches the imagination in exciting and fascinating counter-factual histories. Whether you consider them reasonable assumptions of what might have happened or not, you will defiantly enjoy reading his alternative histories. In this second book of alternative history you will discover what could have happened in American history if Lincoln had survived the assassination attempt on his life. Discover what would have happened if Germany had not declared war on the United States after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, how the First World War would have played out if the Germans had not adopted the Von Schlieffen Plan and invaded Belgium in 1914, or what would have happened if North America had been colonized by the Dutch instead of the English, as a result of the Spanish successfully invading England in 1588. Blumetti images what would have happened if Germanicus had not died from his wounds in Germany and instead succeeded Augustus as Emperor of Rome. Under his leadership, there would have been no disaster at Teutoburger Forest. Instead of Rome abandoning Germany, the Romans succeed in conquering and colonizing Germany.
