In a world where the South won the “War for Southern Independence,” Hodge Backmaker, a
northern country bumpkin with academic leanings, makes his way to New York City where he
becomes disillusioned, ponders the notions of time and free will, and eventually goes to a
communal think-tank where time travel offers him the chance to visit the key Gettysburg
battle of the war.
I could say that time is an illusion and that all events occur simultaneously.
