Interesting alternate history book where everyone is living under a dictatorship around the time of our civil war and the people trying to fight it to free all people. It was a good read but short. I wish it was longer because of how enjoyable it was.

The audiobook went very quickly. It's less than 3 hours long, but I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed this alternate history. After it finished, I was inspired to read more about the real history. This is the second book by this author I've finished. Like the last one, a collection of short stories, I like how he mixes his own storytelling with historical events and places.
The hero of the story is a unique, but believable character placed into real places with historical figures we know, like Abraham Lincoln.
Overall, I enjoyed this. I was drawn in to the story and the character and inspired to learn more about history.

A romanticised start of the US civil war, with some well-known heroes (Lincoln, Chamberlain). An ok, short read
