Quote: An alternate history story set during the American Civil War, the story deals with a group of time-travelling Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging members from 2014 (who conceal their true identities while restating their acronym as "America Will Break"). Led by Andries Rhoodie, they wish to alter the outcome of the Civil War and, as a result, insure the success of their own cause in the future. In order to do this, they provide the South with a large number of AK-47s. To all but a few Confederate leaders, who are told the truth, they are known as "Rivington men" after the (fictional) North Carolina town where they set up their base. Only on chapter 5 but I've been enjoying it so far.
