Settling Accounts: Return Engagement by Harry TurtledoveDescription: Confederate President Jake Featherstone has launched an undeclared war of revenge on the U.S.A., with Rebel 'barrels' (tanks) cutting the nation in half. U.S. President Al Smith doesn't sue for peace as expected, causing unreconstructed Canadians to sabotage the now-vital Northern rail system holding the nation together. Mormon separatists have once more revolted against the federal government, and Louis Armstrong, who has defected to the North, brings with him chilling evidence of the Confederate 'population reductions' (genocide) of African-Americans.
