After twenty years in the US military and twenty-seven years teaching history at Delaware State University, Steven Newton knows how not just to analyze history, but to bring it to life--even as fiction! "There's no requirement for history--even detailed analytical history like my examinations of the Wehrmacht or the Confederate Army--to be dull," he says. "There's no bad history--just bad historical writing." Known for his high-level analysis of the Russo-German War in "Kursk: the German View"; his editorial reconstruction of the memoirs of General Erhard Raus in "Panzer Operations"; and his popular biography of Field Marshal Walther Model: "Hitler's Commander"; or his American Civil War publications including the highly original "Lost for the Cause: The Confederate Army in 1864" and the groundbreaking "Joseph E. Johnston and the Defense of Richmond," Newton has now branched off into alternative historical fiction. "I've been reading science fiction my entire life," Newton says, "and one of the most important trends in the past 30 years has been the full development of alternative history as an exciting sub-genre all it's own. There are as many variations to history out there to explore as there are alien planets to land on." "MacArthur's Luck" (The Fortunes of War #1) represents his first foray into the genre made mainstream by authors like Harry Turtledove or Harry Harrison in which meticulous research combines with imaginative "what-if" situations and compelling characters to take readers on a rollercoaster ride in world that might have been (and--depending on the exact vagaries of quantum theory--might very well be!).
