By the author of breakout WW II era alternate history Himmler s War and Rising Sun, a compelling alternate history thriller. After winning WW I, Germany invades America in 1920, marching through California and Texas as a desperate nation resists. Consider another 1920: Imperial Germany has become the most powerful nation in the world. In 1914, she had crushed England, France, and Russia in a war that was short but entirely devastating. By 1920, Kaiser Wilhelm II is looking for new lands to devour. The United States is fast becoming an economic super-power and the only nation that can conceivably threaten Germany. The U.S. is militarily inept, however, and is led by a sick and delusional president who wanted to avoid war at any price. Thus, Germany is able to ship a huge army to Mexico to support a puppet government. Her real goal: the invasion and permanent conquest of California and Texas. America desperately resists as the mightiest and most brutal army in the world in a battle fought on land, at sea, and in the air as enemy armies savagely marched up on California, and move north towards a second Battle of the Alamo. Only the indomitable spirit of freedom can answer the Kaiser's challenge. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
In an alternate 1920, a victorious Imperial Germany sets its sights on the United States, initiating a devastating invasion. The United States, militarily unprepared and led by an isolationist president, faces the mightiest army in the world. Germany, having already conquered England, France, and Russia, lands troops in Mexico to support a puppet government, with the ultimate goal of permanently conquering California and Texas. The narrative follows America's desperate resistance across land, sea, and air, culminating in battles reminiscent of the Alamo as enemy forces advance northward.
The premise sets up a high-stakes alternate history thriller, pitting a technologically superior and victorious Imperial Germany against a unprepared United States. The narrative appears to focus on large-scale military conflict and the desperate struggle for survival, exploring themes of national resilience and the consequences of unchecked imperial ambition. The description suggests a fast-paced plot driven by military action and strategic maneuvers across North America. The inclusion of 'Annotated' and 'Unabridged' in the title implies a detailed and comprehensive exploration of this alternate timeline.
