FREEDOM AND JUSTICE -- AMERICAN STYLE 1632 And in northern Germany things couldn't get much worse. Famine. Disease. Religous war laying waste the cities. Only the aristocrats remained relatively unscathed; for the peasants, death was a mercy. 2000 Things are going OK in Grantville, West Virginia, and everybody attending the wedding of Mike Stearn's sister (including the entire local chapter of the United Mine Workers of America, which Mike leads) is having a good time. THEN, EVERYTHING CHANGED.... When the dust settles, Mike leads a group of armed miners to find out what happened and finds the road into town is cut, as with a sword. On the other side, a scene out of Hell: a man nailed to a farmhouse door, his wife and daughter attacked by men in steel vests. Faced with this, Mike and his friends don't have to ask who to shoot. At that moment Freedom and Justice, American style, are introduced to the middle of the Thirty Years' War.

Flint self-identifies with the Left; but his is an old- fashioned, Jeffersonian sort of populist liberalism, which embraces democracy, human rights, religious freedom (as opposed to "freedom from religion"), personal moral responsibility, retributive justice, and widespread gun ownership. When their small town is transported, through a super-advanced alien race's meddling with the fabric of space time, to Germany during the Thirty Years War, the residents of Grantville, WV are willing to fight

About a quarter of the way through this book, I got the same unpleasant, slightly dirty feeling you get when you suddenly realize you've been groovin' along to Christian rock. This story of a small West Virginian town suddenly transported to 17th century Europe is the worst kind of pro-American rhetoric, thinly disguised as science-fiction.The author shrewdly chooses to drop his scale model of small town American values at a time and place where the natives are impressed with the ingenuity and

A book somewhat in the vein of Stirling's 'Nantuckt' series. Not as dark, or as detailed it is a fun romp in the messing up of history. In this particular case the history that they are messing with is the 30 years war. It is something along this lines of the Three Musketeers (Protestant Reformation) meets small town West Virginia. Some of the characters are very well done and this does include the historical figures of whom Gustavus Adalphous is one of the most fun. I don't have enough of a

This is a wonderfully fun series. I've enjoyed reading through 1634 (The Baltic Campaign) and enjoyed the characters and the history, along with the twists and turns of dystopian what if's. There is action though it tends to be more of a logic pretzel dealing with known personalities and shoving unkown's amongst them. That said, it's fun, there is a whimsical side that is, by no means, light, but provides humor and funny characters to enjoy. There are lots of heads to be in. It's interesting

So, I finished reading Eric Flint's 1632 recently. The premise of the book is a modern-day West Virginia miner town is thrown backward in time to the middle of the Holy Roman Empire during the Thirty Years War.The Good: It's established in the introduction to the book that when the town is sent back in time -- due to some aliens monkeying with space-time as a form of "art" -- another universe splits off. So it is possible for the 20th century people in the town to change the timeline. This

I'll say right off the bat that I'm biased here. I've briefly met Eric Flint, and, curmudgeonly older gentleman that he is, I liked him a lot. But I think there's a lot to like here, regardless. 1632 is an easy book to like. It has a U.S. town that's thrown back in time and space (by, no less, a small sliver of an alien lifeform's art) to 1632 Germany, where its inhabitants struggle to determine how they're going to survive. The optimism and fortitude shown by the people of Grantville is

Very unusual story line which I enjoyed! A West Virginia town is mysteriously transferred to 1632 Germany!4/19 I think I enjoyed it even more the 2nd time because I knew all the characters!
