It's a mind-bending mash-up of all the best bits of history. How did a chance meeting between Abraham Lincoln and an obscure German count  result in a man landing on the moon? How did the KKK's declaration war on the Mafia, end up creating jazz music and sending JFK to the White House? How did the creator of James Bond affect Ronald Reagan's weird career trajectory from B-movie actor to anti-communist crusader? And how did a UFO sighting lead to the creation of the modern computer?

This is not the stuff they teach you at school, but weirdly it is all true. This is history served with a twist.
