The year is 1965. At twenty, John Stilwell Jr. holds a Ph.D. in Quantum Physics and Mathematics. His lifelong intention has been to alter the natural course of history that resulted in his father's death in Korea. In 1953, John Stilwell Sr. died in an explosion a few hours after ...the Korean Conflict ended. John Jr. was six when it happened and never accepted the events that led to his father's death. As far as he was concerned, it wasn't supposed to happen. Now, this smarter than average young gentleman has learned to navigate through time to historical events. He discovers the universe has in place a stalwart guardian of the time continuum with one fallacy; it's not smarter than he is, or so he thinks. Because of his family's minor role in world events, John Stilwell Jr. anticipates little change once his father's death is negated. However, that is not the case. Upon returning to 1965, he finds things have taken a sharp turn in an unexpected direction. An inconsistency exists, threatening to force the continuum into a never-ending time loop. Young John discovers he is working with a mysterious partner to find the reason for the inconsistency before chaos takes the upper hand.

Brookville, Pennsylvania, is a quaint little town with a definite Gilded Age charm about it. But back in 1844, Brookville was on the edge of civilisation - beyond lay the Far West. Its infrastructure was rude, and the locals were ruder. Wolves could be heard howling in the woods ...at night. Irishmen could be heard howling in the taverns, of which there were a surprising number. Monongahela whiskey was the tipple of choice, at three cents the glass, and even the Presbyterians drank it. Hogs roamed free, and cows were milked at the front door come daybreak. The place was wild and woolly, and the call of the wild turkey could be heard in the land. The world passed through Brookville, in the form of 'emigrant trains' headed into the Great Unknown (Ohio), stages with four-horse teams, freight hauled by oxen and sixteen-foot Conestoga wagons (the original long-haul truckers), and horse- and foot-traffic of all kinds. People stayed informed: politics was unusually divisive in 1844, which was a presidential election year. Pretend you don't know who's going to win - you do, right? - and enjoy the fussing between Whigs and Democrats along with the rest of the town. From timber rafting to militia training, there is a lot to see as Jim Tanner and Brookville come of age
