In this extraordinary World War II alternate history, master storyteller
Harry Turtledove begins with a big switch: what if Neville Chamberlain,
instead of appeasing Hitler, had stood up to him in 1938? Enraged, Hitler
reacts by lashing out at the West, promising his soldiers that they will
reach Paris by the new year. They don.t. Three years later, his genocidal
apparatus not fully in place, Hitler has barely survived a coup, while
Jews cling to survival. But England and France wonder whether the war is
still worthwhile.

Weaving together a cast of characters that ranges from a brawling American
fighter in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade in Spain to a woman who has seen
Hitler.s evil face-to-face, Harry Turtledove takes us into a world shaping
up very differently in 1941. The Germans and their Polish allies have
slammed into the gut of the Soviet Union in the west, while Japan pummels
away in the east. In trench warfare in France, French and Czech fighters
are outmanned but not outfought by their Nazi enemy. Then the stalemate
is shattered. In England, Winston Churchill dies in an apparent accident,
and the gray men who walk behind his funeral cortege wonder who their real
enemy is. The USSR, fighting for its life, makes peace with Japan.and
Japan.s war with America is about to begin.

A sweeping saga of human passions, foolishness, and courage, of families
and lovers and soldiers by choice and by chance, The Big Switch is
a provocative, gripping, and utterly convincing work of alternate history
at its best. For history buffs and fans of big, blood-and-guts fiction,
Harry Turtledove delivers a panoramic clash of ideals as powerful as
armies themselves.
