Product Description
What if history didn't happen that way . . . the first time?

Garison Fitch knows the world used to be different. Or does he?

Back from a science experiment that went strangely wrong, Garison finds his world changed. Even his parents, who died in a plane crash years before, are alive now. The plane crash never happened. None of it did.

But he knows it did.

Now, can he return things to "normal"?

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on time travel I have ever read!, December 16, 2002

By	"chccminister" (Lawton, OK) - See all my reviews

First Time is an incredible book! I can't stop thinking about it.

Garison Fitch, the star of the story, is a scientist who grew up in a world where the Soviets ruled and the United States had only lasted for a few years in the 1700s. But then, through an accident, he winds up back in the 1700s. When he gets back to the 21st century, the world has changed. But it's changed to what we know. So he must decide whether to go back and change things to "normal"--or what he knows as normal.

The book is 400 pages long but the story is so fast paced I couldn't put it down and read it in a weekend. The writing is crisp and the way White turns phrases had me reading passages over and over because they just blew me away.

Time travel is not a new concept in the world of sci-fi/fantasy, but "First Time" will assure you'll never think about it the same way again!
