Time, moving backwards, and other notional reversals and
transpositions attend the picaresque experiences of Hodge Backmaker
and the aftermath of a Civil War in which the South was victorious.
In the 1930's, Hodge comes to New York where he joins the Grand
Army and is troubled by hate mongering. Some years later he meets
Barbara Haggerswells and joins her father's intellectual retreat
where he does research on the Civil War and marries Catty. A trip
to Gettysburg finds Barbara there- who gives him the timepiece
which takes him back to the fateful battle and changes his
perspective. Yours, however, may be quite confused by the close.
(Kirkus Reviews)
Trapped in 1877, a historian writes an account of an alternate
history of America in which the South won the Civil War. Living in
this alternate timeline, he was determined to change events at
Gettysburg. When he's offered the chance to return to that fateful
turning point his actions change history as he knows it, leaving
him in an all too familiar past.
