A book by John Barnes that faces a What If FDR was assassinated in 1937 and John Nance Gardner directed a US intervention in a Mexican facist revolution the next year. Meanwhile, Germany's used of wonder weapons led to a fast domination in Europe.

This is the first of three books which make up the Timeline Wars:
Patton's Spaceship (sometimes called 'Crux of Battle')
Washington's Dirigible
Caesar's Bicycle

The protagonist is a bodyguard from our world drawn into a intertimeline war.

Point of divergence from our timeline: 1937
