Alternate History June 16, 2012 10:45 pm FrankC

I stumbled on this while looking for info on Emperor Maximilian of Mexico.

It is a relatively short 2-3 hour read for me with several distractions. A 10-15 minute scan would give you the gist of it, if you don’t get engrossed like I did. It is written in timeline bullet point form.

The timeline runs from 1864 to 1970. I am an alternate history fan and I enjoyed it a lot. There were some fascinating quirks, including Hitler being accepted to the art school he applied to and never going into politics. Einstein being killed early on and no Atomic Bomb until the 50′s. It is far more entertaining (to me), than it is believable. :)

I honestly don’t think there is anything offensive in it but feel free to move it to Flame if someone wants to tee off on it
