ONE LAMP Alternate History Stories from The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction Edited by Gordon Van Gelder The alternate history story is probably the purest form of "what if" speculation. From earthshaking encounters, such as Gandhi's pacifists facing down the Nazis, to absurd ones, such as Philip K. Dick hobnobbing with Richard M. Nixon, this book explores what-might-have-been, pasts that never were. If Mark Twain had encountered Quantrill's Raiders… if Rome never fell… if the past could be re-made, reshaped to our desires. The fifteen stories gathered here were written from the 1950s to just last year, demonstrating why alternate history has grown more popular than ever. They appeared in the pages of the most respected magazine in the SF genre—The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction—and were selected by that magazine's editor, Gordon Van Gelder. The table of contents is studded with classic SF/fantasy names, including C.M. Kornbluth, Ben Bova, Robert Silverberg, Harry Turtledove, Alfred Bester, and Poul Anderson. And what they have written will not fail to enthrall any reader inclined to the fantastic, the meta-real, the might-have-been … Copies, signed by the Editor, are available by either choosing the PayPal button or by using your credit card on our secure server.
