About this listen

The Great Society is Book 3 of the alternative history series Timeline 10/27/62 – USA.

In the alternative timeline of the post-Cuban Missiles War, the swinging 60s never happened.

The Great Society is the third verse of the American story of Armageddon. To its friends and enemies, alike the United States seems to have emerged from the October War battered, bruised, but invincible. However, 13 months after the cataclysm terrible wounds remain unhealed and the nation of liberty is riven by conflict. The United States is a country desperately looking to re-find its way; to re-discover its sense of nationhood and purpose. What has happened to the American Dream; is the destiny of the land of the free still manifest?

In Washington, DC, there had been an uprising; it is too soon to know if the attack on the Capitol is a coup d’état, a popular uprising ,or simply a massive terroristic assault on the seat of American democracy and government.

What price is unity when the war-ravaged states of the American North West and the Great Lakes already feel like battlegrounds in the next war?

Across the West, while incumbent Mayors and Governors are asking themselves how they will fend off the deafening clamour of "states rights" movements; the Federal government is struggling to unpick the chaos of a failed coup d’état.

The search is on for the traitors who even now still threaten the Union and the recriminations are just beginning.

What price is the Great Society?
