Review: Why not a novel?
Rating: 3 out of 5

The concept behind this book is a divergence in British Military strategy coming up to WW2, leading to more emphasis on aircraft carriers rather than conventional naval force.Its a dry as dust history (sic) apart from the starting concept, which leads me to wonder why the author didnt try and make a novel of it. Its like Turtledove without the Dove, and sugar all Turtle.Bearing all that in mind its worth 2.5 stars for the interesting concept, and detail of how it gradually improves Imperial fortunes.
