A Landmark Steampunk Alternate History Novel of Transatlantic Tunnels, Nuclear Locomotives, and Empire

Set in an alternate 1973 where the American Revolution failed and the British Empire rules North America, brilliant chief engineer Captain Augustine Washington—a descendant of George Washington—embarks on a monumental industrial project: constructing a vacuum-tube train tunnel under the Atlantic Ocean connecting London and New York.

Facing sabotage from corporate rivals, political opposition in Parliament, and sub-oceanic geological hazards, Washington utilizes atomic-powered boring machines and steam-driven technology. Washington races to complete the megastructure to restore his family's honor and secure American independence.

Why You’ll Love This Book
