This is a very scholarly collection of longish short stories that require the reader to have a good historical background of each “what if” scenario. I particularly enjoyed the Tudor ones. That said, the most prescient of all is Abigail Adams’ story, “Remember the Ladies.” I wanted to weep reading that one. Instead of “what if”, all I could think was “if only” for my daughters and granddaughters. This is a clever endeavor.

A whole lot of fun in an anthology of short stories. The authors write with such imagination and absolutely know their subject matter. This was a great find and I highly recommend it!

Eight historical writers were challenged to ask the greatest question of their genre: What If?
The results are varied in content but equally captivating. This book will take you back into the past, before projecting you forward to a time that might have existed if only one thing was changed. It’s a study of how strange it is that one moment – one decision – can dictate the years which follow.
Once you’ve read this book, you will always be wondering what might have happened; how different the world would be. What then..? What if..?
