Today, I bought The Hitler Options: Alternate Decisions of World War II by Kenneth Macksey on Amazon Kindle and just started reading it on the journey to work. It is another alternate history book containing essays by different military historians on the different decisions that Hitler could have taken at key points during WWII and the effect of those decisions.
I will write a review when I have finished it.

Virtual History: Alternatives and Counterfactuals
Last week I bought Virtual History: Alternatives and Counterfactuals by Niall Ferguson, a counterfactual history book exploring several what if scenarios that would or would not change history. Common examples of counterfactual history include what if the Normans lost the battle of Hastings or what if the D-day landings had failed. I am still on the introduction and having read Ferguson's other works, I believe this will be better thought out than other counterfactual books that I have read.
