What If? A Chronicle of What Might Have Been book

What If? A Chronicle of What Might Have Been book

Hardcover

What if Annie West woke up one fine morning with a plan to draw a moustache, monobrow and even – hey, why not? – a monocle on some of the biggest events in history? But her next thought was nah, can’t be bothered, that’d be a waste of time. The alternative ending for this quirky, funny, spiky book would have been: no book. In the parallel universe of tiny what-ifs, you’d be reading something else right now.

From Sheila O'Malley's 81-year-old Elvis duetting with Adele to Frank McNally's World War I that actually did end by Christmas 1914, in What If? Annie West and 24 contributors from Dublin to San Francisco – including Jim Lockhart, Liz Buckley, Lorna Siggins and Tom Foley – take some of history's most famous and infamous moments for a spin in new and eccentric directions.
