Mengubah sejarah memberikan perspektif dan sejarah alternatif dari alam semesta selari di dunia kita. Bertanya, apakah yang akan berlaku jika satu peristiwa, statistik atau atribut peribadi diubah.

He discovers the World's Largest Lobster Cooker at the Maine Lobster Festival and confronts the inevitable question just beyond the butter-or-cocktail-sauce quandary.

On January 17, 1913, alone and near starvation, Douglas Mawson, leader of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, was hauling a sledge to get back to base camp - the dogs were gone. Mawson plunged through a snow bridge, dangling over an abyss by the sledge harness. A line of poetry gave him the will to haul himself back to the surface.
