14 September 1766. Prime Minister William Pitt proposes the Columbia Compromise, unifying the Kingdom of Great Britain and her colonies and establishing a framework for North American representation in Parliament. The American War of Independence is over before it begins. This is the history of British North America. This anthology includes nine original stories from six authors. Each delves into events along the timeline between this point of divergence from established history up to the present day, from the uncertainty of early colonial conflicts to the devastation on the front line of the War of Wars, from the politics underpinning a British mission to land a man on the moon to rivalry on the cricket grounds of New England. Accompanied by extensive appendices including maps, biographies, letters and diaries, they collectively describe an alternate history of the sisterhood between a very British North America and Great Britain, the story of Columbia and Britannia.

These beautiful and heartfelt stories range widely in their themes, stretching from horror and almost classic ghost stories to lyrical flights of fantasy, gritty and painful realism and dark twisted imaginings - from subtle slipstream writing with only the faintest sense of the otherworldly to haunting and vivid space fiction and even light-hearted homages to the colourful and gleeful world of the pulps. Always unexpected, these stories remain completely bound together by their own universal aesthetic and a style filled with sadness and gentleness. And filled also by a sense of wonder, both at the places where Zelenyj's imagination can take you and at the familiar world that these stories frame so touchingly. This massive collection of 40 stories will remain as a companion for a long time to come.
