Drake's Drum: The Reckoning Oct 28, 2019

by Nicholas Sumner

( 71 )

$6.40

By the spring of 1946, war raged again across the globe. Britain was drawn inexorably into the maw of the conflict, but her leaders knew that another war, where the country would once more have no choice but to use up its accumulated capital, would inevitably see it become the dependent of another power.

But the fight did not progress as expected and nor did the fortunes of any of the belligerents.

Drake’s Drum: The Reckoning is the second part of a three book series that recounts an immersive, thoroughly researched alternate timeline where politics, conflict and the history of the 20th Century turn out very differently from what we know.

Drake's Drum: Currents of Fate Sep 28, 2021

by Nicholas Sumner

( 67 )

$9.99

On Sunday 25th April 1948, Boston, Massachusetts, became the first city in the world to suffer attack with an atomic weapon.

It is now universally acknowledged that although Commander Eric Brown of the Royal Navy was the first man to break the sound barrier, he was not the first human being to exceed the speed of sound in controlled flight.

The Dutch author Anne Frank, who won the 1964 Pulitzer Prize for Literature, based her first novels on her experiences of life in Nazi occupied Holland.

The acclaimed Drake's Drum series continues in this gripping third volume.

Drake's Drum: The Peace of Amiens Jun 10, 2019

by Nicholas Sumner

( 85 )

$6.00

British decline in the 20th Century is often seen as something fixed and inevitable. As the United Kingdom’s financial strength ebbed, so did its power, prestige and influence in the world. Yet Britain was never a state in terminal decay. In relative decline, perhaps, but always a vital entity, one that embraced a process of re–invention; that proved ready to change and adapt its methods, its institutions and its structures.

But what if that re-invention had been driven by a pragmatic realism that put the economic health of the British state at the heart of policy?

Drake’s Drum: The Peace of Amiens is the compulsively readable first part of a three book series that recount an immersive, thoroughly researched alternate timeline where British politics, Britain’s wars and the history of the world in the 20th Century turn out very differently.
