Ask Not of Your Country is book four of the alternative history series Timeline 10/27/62 - USA.

In the alternative timeline of the post-Cuban Missiles War the swinging sixties never happened. "Ask not of your country" is the fourth verse of the American story of Armageddon. To its friends and enemies alike, the United States seems to have emerged from the October War battered, bruised, but invincible. However, 20 months after the cataclysm, terrible wounds remain unhealed, and the nation of liberty is riven by conflict.

What is the price of unity when the war-ravaged states of the American North West and the Great Lakes already feel like battlegrounds in the next war? While racial tensions erupt across the South, civil war threatens in Illinois and Wisconsin, Congress and the administration are deadlocked, and the alliance with the British disintegrates.

While the Red Army surges south to the Persian Gulf, in Philadelphia, the Kennedy Administration turns a blind eye, intent on pandering to the most virulent strain of the "America First" movement in election year.

The survivors had honestly believed that the world had gone mad in October 1962. Now, they are beginning to ask themselves how much worse things can get? Tragically, the answer is that things can get a lot, lot worse. 

Never was Jack Kennedy’s inaugural appeal for all Americans to "ask not what your country can do for you" but to "ask what you can do for your country" more apposite.

Welcome to the fourth verse of Timeline 10/27/62 - USA Series.

Please note: As with several earlier Timeline 10/27/62 books, Ask Not of Your Country comes with a cliff-hanger warning.
