I'm currently reading Stephen Fry's book "Making History" and for anyone yet to pick it up I recommend you nip down to your nearest Waterstones and grab yourself a copy. The basic plot is that of a Twenty-something history student who uses a time machine to prevent Adolf Hitler from being born. Although his motives are good his time-dabbling has consequences that he didn't forsee due to his simplistic outlook of pre-war history. To the main characters (Micheal) mind preventing Hitler from being born will effectively stop the Second World War from ever happening and in the process save millions of lives. Unbeknownst to him, Hitler was the lesser of two evils and the Third Reich goes on to reach it aims under an even more despotic leader and the whole world is vastly different to the one he has become accustomed to.
That's about as far as I've got into it at the moment so without further a do I shall return to my reading chair and carry on.
