Full Description
It has taken almost five years for the United
States of Europe to stabilize its position in 17th-century Europe. Now it turns
its attention to the New World, where the English have ceded their colonial
claims to France. There are vast lands and rich resources across the
Atlantic for any nations powerful enough to rule and control them—and
equal incentive for other nations to block their
path.
The time-displaced Americans
know about the future path that led to their own United States in North America,
in the other universe they came from. But do they want to repeat that history as
it was? Yes, they had democracy—but they are helping to create that in
Europe. And they have learned the bitter prices paid for chattel slavery and the
near-extermination of the native
populations.
Knowledge is power.
Perhaps a new course can be taken. Accordingly, an expedition is sent to the New
World to see just what might be happening there and what might be done.
They are armed with their technology, among which are a radio and an airship.
More importantly, they are armed with the knowledge of future history and their
determination not to repeat the errors of their
past.
What could possibly go
wrong?
