An epic of humanity at war with itself, Harry Turtledove's Great War saga plunges us deeper into the war that began in Europe, then exploded with a vengeance onto American soil.
The world is convulsing. Germany remains locked in battle with France, Russia, and Britain, while the United States and the Confederate States of America charge headlong into the global conflict--as bitter enemies once again.
The year is 1915, and the time of darkness has come. Though the Confederacy has defeated its northern enemy twice, this time the United States have allied with the Kaiser. In the South, the freed slaves, fueled by Marxist rhetoric and the bitterness of a racist nation, take up the weapons of the Red rebellion. Despite these advantages, the United States remains pinned between Canada and the C.S.A., so the bloody conflict condnues and grows.
