"A collection of alternate and secret history short stories."
From airships lost between universes, to golems winning the fight against racism, Lou Antonelli explains the many ways the world might have been. Dip into this collection of previously-published tales, and you'll experience
* Where technology suppresses magic in an apartheid-like state.
* Ancient civilizations that succumb to their own nuclear holocausts.
* Alternate worlds in which Christianity is just one of many minor Earth-bound religions, and others where it rules and spans outer space.
* How the America's westward expansion would have happened if the New Madrid earthquake had allowed the North American inland sea to reform.
Here you'll find Antonelli's version of Brigadoon, and of the sinking of the "Titanic" and the "Carpathia." You'll visit alternate realities that have been hiding Neanderthals, and pick up the lost Kodak snapshots of what might have been. With cameo appearances by O. Henry, Robert E. Howard, and Rod Serling, join this wild ride and delve into demonic possession, immortality, and the infinite variety of other worlds.
Includes the 2013 Sidewise Award for Alternate History finalist short story "Great White Ship."
Lou Antonelli is a modern speculative fiction author with classic sensibilities, honed by a long career as a newspaperman.

The Clock Struck None eBook Lou Antonelli Reviews
It’s possible that you haven’t run into the stories of Lou Antonelli. Since 2003, he’s been publishing delightful short tales of alternate history all over the nooks and crannies of the SF world. Thanks to Fantastic Books, we now have 28 of these little gems in one place.
Many of Antonelli’s stories have an unexpected twist ending. And many of them are what he calls “secret history” stories, which aren’t exactly alternate history—they’re set in our familiar history, but there’s always some element that contemporary observers missed. For example, take the time travelers in “Meet Me at the Grassy Knoll.”
As for alternate history, well, one of the included stories, “Great White Ship,” was a finalist for the 2013 Sidewise Award, which is given for outstanding works in the field of alternate history. In “Pirates of the Ozarks” the New Madrid earthquake of 1812 turned the Great Plains into a new sea. “The Starship Theodora” posits a universe in which a Christianized Roman Empire conquered the stars.
The alternaten history stories were inventive and interesting. A few stories, however seemed to go nowhere or have an inadequate payoff.
