Madison's War: An Alternate History of the War of 1812

By Erin Kushner

At the outbreak of hostilities, the people of the northeast - long suspicious of the federal government - secede from the union and form their own government. Weakened, the United States may only prosecute the war to the best of its abilities.The Indian Confederation of Tecumseh, sensing crisis in the United States, takes the offensive. The warrior/leader unites tribes with the ultimate goal of returning Ohio to native hands and living in peace with all creatures of the Great Spirit.Erica Dunning tires of her life. Posing as a man, she escapes her father's plantation, only to be stolen away by a British press gang and thrown onto a ship of war. When she reaches the coast of America, she escapes, but will she find peace in a hostile land, or live another life entirely?Madison's War is a look at an alternate America. Can later crises be averted by this bold, new direction, or will a nation once united be divided by class once more? Will wounds created by war with the British fester and turn into war pitting brother against brother?
