Title: Alternate History
Product review: I'm all up into this kind of thing ("Fatherland", & etc.) "The Guns of the South", is sure enough an entertaining read, but kinda glosses over time-travel paradoxes. On the one hand, it seems the 1990s books, brought back to the 1860s, should have reflected the changes wrought by the time travelers. On the other, as the tomes had already been printed & extant when brought to the alternate past, one might assume the material contained therein was immutable (as opposed to the, "Back to the Future", or, "Frequency", theory, where an act undertaken in the past would cause printed text, images or even objects to alter before one's eyes. That's a lot to try getting one's head around, if considered too seriously, so my advice is to put all technicalities aside. You'll only drive yourself nuts trying to over-analyze all the nuts & bolts of time travel, so don't. Just enjoy the stories!
