to fascism and anti semitism

The United States countered by Philip J. weapons and unusual is an alternate history science fiction Ross. It is located in a nineteen forties, mainly in the New Jersey Newark (time and location, Ross himself grew up in the United States), more and more about to fascism and anti semitism.
The novel's protagonist is a young Jewish boy named Philip. This is from his point of view, we see the rise of anti Semitism, but we also learn many other details of Philip's childhood. Therefore, this book is not just about the historical changes, but also grow up - but these details are very unique flavor, let one of this book.
According to Ross, he did not know the alternate history genre when he wrote this novel, and, at the same time, many methods seem surprising and some of the comments and critics have questioned this argument, it does not seem likely that Ross may be true, especially because there are many aspects of the story, not in accordance with the practice of alternate history genre normal. Perhaps the most obvious example is the end (the United States, what will happen after the fascist period) - I will not reveal in this review - but I have confidence, believe that anyone, even the butterfly effect a little bit of a be hardly worthy of belief, will find it even affected, which in my opinion is the secret alternate history than history. That is to say, I found no damage to the end of the novel as a whole - because I think the novel is really what Philip feelings and life situation description, rather than a specific historical details of the political background of the story.
If you are a fan of that alternate history who is only interested in historical details, such as the combat, weapons and leadership decision-making, then this book is not for you. On the other hand, if you have a good writing and interesting, more widely understood, and that different from the run of the mill excess alternate historical novel things, then this book is for you.
