As World War II intensifies, North America experiences widespread violence, including Confederate attacks on northern cities, Canadian insurgents, and a Japanese invasion of the Hawaiian islands. In the South, former slaves are compelled to construct their own concentration camps. Meanwhile, Vice President La Follette assumes leadership after the president's death, while Franklin Roosevelt works to strengthen his political position. This 2006 novel by Harry Turtledove presents an alternate history of the war's impact on North America.
