When a cosmic disturbance hurls your town from 20th century West Virginia back to 17th century Europe--and into the middle of the Thirty Years War--you have to adapt to survive. And the natives of that time period, faced with American technology and politics, need to be equally adaptable. Here's a generous helping of more stories of Grantville, the American town lost in time, and its impact on the people and societies of a tumultous age.
