This novel spans the period between the Chicago World's Fair of 1893 and the years just after World War I.

World War III Post Script, was written as a reality-based Alternate History. I hope it’s not prophetic. The plan had been operating for two decades.

The plan was perfect, except for an October 6th premature text message to five young men waiting in London, Paris, Brussels, and Tel Aviv.

The War is over, Britain has fallen. It wasn't necessarily that Britain had lost the Second World War.
