The Foresight War

A novel of an alternative World War 2 by Anthony G Williams

What if – you went to sleep as usual in 2004 – and woke up in 1934?
What if – you had vital knowledge about the forthcoming Second World War, and could prove that you came from the future?
What could you do to affect British policy, strategy, tactics and equipment?
How might the course of the conflict be changed?
And what if there was another throwback from the future – and he was working for the enemy?
The novel follows the story of these two 'throwbacks' as they pit their wits against each other. A very different Second World War rages across Europe, the Mediterranean, Russia, the North Atlantic and the Pacific, until its shocking conclusion.

This book may be purchased online, or very shortly in paperback

This is the weirdest thing, I want to buy this book but I simply can't find it on Amazon.

I even searched by the author, Anthony G. Williams is credited with 22 books on their site, but not one of them is this one.

Ah, standard timetravel problem.  The first time the first throwback says something and the generals actually do it, the whole thing changes.  Nothing is the same following it.  


I don't know about you, but a 4 page book does not sound like fun to me.

Well, I've only written (or co-authored) six!

Great, thanks!  Ordered tonight, look forward to reading it.  I've really enjoyed the genre, especially the Turtledove stuff.
