If the South Had Won the Civil War

The Pulitzer Prize–winning author reveals how the South could have won the Civil War in this alternative history novel. Two small shifts in history (as we know it) in the summer of 1863 could have turned the tide for the Confederacy. What would have happened: to the Union, to Abraham Lincoln, to the people of the North and South, to the world if the Confederacy achieved victory? If the South Had Won the Civil War originally appeared in Look Magazine in 1960. It immediately inspired a deluge of letters and telegrams from astonished readers and became an American classic overnight before its publication in book form. This edition of Kantor's masterpiece features a stunning cover by acclaimed Civil War artist Don Troiani, an introduction by New York Times–bestselling, award-winning alternate history author Harry Turtledove, and fifteen superb illustrations by the incomparable Dan Nance. It all begins on that fateful afternoon of Tuesday, May twelve, 1863, when a deplorable equestrian accident claims the life of General Ulysses S. Grant . . . .
