Impossible Histories: The Soviet Republic of Alaska, the United States of Hudsonia, President Charlemagne, and Other Pivotal Moments of History That Never Happened by Hal Johnson

saamunds's review

3.0

Impossible Histories is a 'what would happen if' certain events throughout history happened or never happened and the potential ramifications of these events on the future. Events such as the US purchase of Alaska, if Hitler was sane for a day, or if Christianity hadn't stuck in most of Europe. Hal Johnson has a casual way of writing that makes this an easy to read book, but there is still a wealth of information both about the actual events and the alternate events. I really enjoyed this title and Johnson's writing style.
