Book of the Week: Virtual History by Niall Ferguson

Book of the WeekWhat if Britain had stayed out of the First World War? What if Germany had won the Second? How would England look if there had been no Cromwell? What would the world be like if Communism had never collapsed? And what if John F. Kennedy had lived?

In this acclaimed book,

leading historians from Andrew Roberts to Michael Burleigh explore what might have been if nine of the most decisive moments in modern history had never happened. We are given a convincing, detailed “alternative history” of the West—from the accession of “James III” in 1701, to a Nazi-occupied England, to a U.S. Prime Minister Kennedy who lives to complete his term.

Edited by  one of Britain's most renowned historians Niall Ferguson, the book is available in the Senior School Library.
