Summary

History shows that leadership is crucial in war, but there are other factors at work. What if history were given a twist or two, and great commanders on land and sea fought their greatest battles under different circumstances? Turtledove and his colleagues turn the past upside down and inside out, and the possibilities are endless. . . .

The historical Flora MacDonald helped Bonnie Prince Charlie escape Scotland after his failed rebellion in 1745. Captured by the English, said she would have helped his enemy, the Duke of Cumberland, if he had needed her assistance. So, in Over the Sea from Skye by Lillian Stewart Carl, Bonnie Prince Charlie wins his battle and Cumberland arrives destitute on Flora's doorstep, testing Flora's intelligence and resolve. Because Cumberland's personality is far from "bonnie", and Flora has to think as fast in dealing with him as she does in dealing with his pursuers.
