What If 2 is the second book in its seris of historical fiction. I enjoyed the perspectives from various historians who wrote the in depth histories leading up to the events and then predicted what would have happened had they not unfolded in that way. Definitely a must-have for history buffs or those who just want to enjoy a book by historians who investigate and articulate history's "what ifs?"
