The West Virginia town of Grantville, torn from the twentieth century
and hurled back into seventeenth century Europe has allied with Gustavus
Adolphus, King of Sweden, in the United States of Europe. So, when
Gustavus invades Poland, managing to unite all the squabbling Polish
factions into repelling the common enemy, the time-lost Americans have
to worry about getting dragged into the fight along with the Swedish
forces.
But Mike Stearns has another problem. He was Prime Minister of the USE
until he lost an election, and now he's one of Gustavus's generals; and
he has demonstrated that he's very good at being a general. And he's
about to really need all his military aptitude. Gretchen , who never saw
a revolution she didn't like, has been arrested in Saxony, and is likely
to be executed. The revolutionary groups which she has been working with
are not about to let that happen, and suddenly there's rioting in the
streets. Saxony's ruthless General Baner is determined to suppress the
uprising by the time-honored 'kill them all and let God sort them out'
method, which only adds fuel to the fire. So Gustavus orders Mike Stearns
to go to Saxony and restore order. But he makes one mistake.

didn't tell him not to, either...
