Anybody with an open mind and a love of alternative history should take a look at Harry Turtledove's Southern Victory series which is about 11 books I think, detaling what might have happend if the South had won the Civil War all the way up to an alternative WWII, they're pretty good.

I think Newt Gingrich also wrote a book on this topic. There was also one I read called Guns of the Confederacy where time travels supplied the South with AK47s. :lol:

Guns of the SOUTH but Yeah i've read that one too. It was more ScIFI than the Southern Victory series. Actually it was fans writing him wanting him to make a realistic version that made him write the series
