An amusing tale of alternate realities and time travel,

This review is from: The whenabouts of Burr (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was written in 1975, and was obviously meant to ride the coattails of Gore Vidal's "Burr". What if the famous Burr-Hamilton duel had been interrupted by a time-travel/alternate reality traveler, who falls out of a tree at the right moment?
What if Burr and Hamilton decided to start hopping through alternate realities rather than play politics? Twenty years before, "Sliders", this book explores interesting alternate worlds. Imagine an America of the 1890's that had become a police state that was tracking down subversives sent in by Czar Nicholas II of Russia? Imagine an America of the 1940's in which a German armada lands on the coast of New Jersey? Imagine giant centipedes from outer space devouring New York City in 1935? The main plot involves a copy of the U.S. Constitution signed by Aaron Burr instead of Alexander Hamilton, and government agents work to get their own copy back instead of the Burr variant.For fans of alternate realities and alternate history, this book is a must!
