THE USENET ALTERNATE HISTORY LIST
Version 22 - 12 April 1995

Maintained by R.B. Schmunk
(rbs@panix.com)

"...there are no correct alternate histories; there are only plausible
     alternate histories."
 --Will Shetterly, in "The Captain's Story"

This is an annotated list of novels, stories and essays involving alternate
histories (a.k.a. what-ifs, allohistories, uchronias or counterfactuals),
writings in which a past event is altered and its effect on later history
somehow described. Alternate histories (henceforth abbrev. "AH") are a distinct
subset of parallel worlds/alternate universe stories in which some emphasis has
been put on an historical element. The criteria used to distinguish them were
best defined by:

Chamberlain, Gordon B., "Allohistory in Science Fiction", in ALTERNATIVE
     HISTORIES (eds. Charles G. Waugh & Martin H. Greenberg) (Garland 1986,
     0824086597).

This list is copyright 1993, 1994, 1995 by R.B. Schmunk, except for appendix A,
which is copyright 1993, 1994, 1995 by R.B. Schmunk and Evelyn C. Leeper.
License is hereby granted to republish via electronic or other media for which
_no_ fee is charged (except for the media used) provided that this copyright
notice is attached intact to any and all republished portion or portions. It
may not be sold for profit or incorporated in commercial documents without the
written permission of the copyright holder.

The list is posted quarterly (Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct) to the Usenet newsgroups
rec.arts.sf.written, alt.history.what-if, rec.answers, alt.answers and
news.answers. Follow-ups are directed to rec.arts.sf.written. The most recent
text version of the list is available via the net from:

http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/sf/alt_history/top.html

The HTML version is available from:

http://thule.mt.cs.cmu.edu:8001/sf-clearing-house.html/bibliographies/

Most of the information in this list was contributed by netters and other AH
fans (see below), but much was also extracted from:

Hacker, Barton C., & Gordon B. Chamberlain, "Pasts that Might Have Been, II: A
     Revised Bibliography of Alternative History", in ALTERNATIVE HISTORIES
     (eds. Charles G. Waugh & Martin H. Greenberg) (Garland 1986, 0824086597);
Contento, William, INDEX TO SCIENCE FICTION ANTHOLOGIES AND COLLECTIONS (George
     Prior/G.K. Hall 1978, 081618092X);
Contento, William, INDEX TO SCIENCE FICTION ANTHOLOGIES AND COLLECTIONS
     1977-1983 (G.K. Hall 1984, 0816185549);
_Locus: The Newspaper of the Science Fiction Field_ (ed. Charles N. Brown).

Submissions for new entries are always appreciated, as are corrections to
existing entries. Please e-mail your comments to rbs@panix.com.

Entries are separated into three categories: Anthologies--collections of genre
short stories and/or essays; Alternate Histories--stories, essays and novels;
and Reference Material--discussions about the genre and/or specific stories.
There are also two appendices: A) the Divergence Chronology, and B) the Oldest
Alternate Histories.

In the entries, note that:

The notation '%W' beginning a description stands for 'What if:', and thatline
describes the divergence of that AH from ours.An '%S' means 'Story:', and that
line describes the plot.A '%C' indicates 'Comments:', and a '%T' line lists
publications of thestory in other languages.

If an author's name is replaced by dashes, the entry is a sequel to or in the
same series as the preceding entry. If replaced by dashes within parentheses,
it is part of a series collected within the previous book entry. Double
parentheses indicate inclusion in a book collected within an omnibus volume.

If you can't find a particular short story, check other entries by the author
to see if it was retitled or included in a larger work.

References to anthologies containing a short story include an editor's name
only if different from the author of the story.

The ten-digit numbers which appear in publication data are dashless ISBNs.

Due to the merger-mania which spread through the publishing industry in the
late 1980s and early 1990s, it has become increasingly difficult to tell if
what was once an independent publisher is still a publisher or just an imprint
in a larger company. Thus, some of the publishers listed below may not be
_quite_ correct.

APPENDIX A -- DIVERGENCE CHRONOLOGY

Entries from the Alternate History List are sorted here by date of apparent
divergence from history as we know it. Some crosstime stories may be listed
under more than one date; many stories are not be listed at all because the
divergence date is too vague. All dates AD/CE; negative numbers indicate
BC/BCE. As benchmarks, dates of some notable events are included.

details Axis victory in WW2 are assigned a date of c. 1941.)

APPENDIX B - OLDEST ALTERNATE HISTORIES

This appendix lists Alternate Histories written before that genre of writing
could be considered a genre. Arguments can be made for a number of possible
dates marking a possible beginning point, from the 1931 publication of Squire's
anthology IF IT HAD HAPPENED OTHERWISE to the 1953 publication of Ward Moore's
BRING THE JUBILEE. The date chosen here is 1939, the year that de Camp's
original short story of "Lest Darkness Fall" saw publication. The increasing
number of alternate histories which saw publication from the mid-1930s on are
presumably a result of the respectful treatment given the subject by the
essayists in Squire's IF IT HAD HAPPENED OTHERWISE and by historian Albert
Toynbee in his A STUDY OF HISTORY.

The first undisputable AH _novel_ is Geoffroy-Chateau's NAPOLEON ET LA CONQUETE
DU MONDE, 1812-1823: HISTOIRE DE LA MONARCHIE UNIVERSELLE (1836), and the
earliest novel in English is Holford Costello's ARISTOPIA. A ROMANCE-HISTORY OF
THE NEW WORLD (1895). Other pre-1850 book-length items listed below are not
entirely alternate history but contain AH digressions. The earliest AH short
story is apparently Hawthorne's "P.'s Correspondence" (1845).

Titles are presented here by date of first known _publication_, although some
items are known to have been written several years in advance of that date.
