Almost History

by Roger Bruns
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
Almost History is a fascinating collection of speeches, memos, and other archival material that reveals how our government would have handled historic moments that never came to be: JFK's prepared address justifying his bombing of Cuba during the 1962 missile crisis; Abraham Lincoln's plans for post-Civil War Reconstruction; the authorization for the use of American nuclear weapons in the Vietnam War; the FBI's memo on deporting John Lennon, and much more. The book is not based on supposition; the text is illustrated with actual documents which offer a focus and insight into alternative history that is truly unique. These events were close to reality, but twists of fate and sudden changes stopped them from becoming our destiny.
