In an era in which terrorist actions have become increasingly uncontrollable, seven contemporaries travel back to the days of the early twentieth century in order to change the course of humanity by bringing twenty-first century knowledge, technology, and experience to influence historical leaders without overtly giving away the details of the future. Blind Questis an historical work of science fiction that indicates how ill-equipped the people of 1905 were to meet global challenges. This expansive adventure not only recounts the state of the world in 1905, but also of the condition of humankind through the twentieth and into the twenty-first centuries. It places historic events and conditions in perspective as the fictional characters interact with that history and make it real to the reader. Traveling with the experience of knowing the future of ten later decades, General Charles Anderson and his six colleagues are brought face-to-face with authentic historical personalities of the last century. As their paths cross, the story is woven into an exciting adventure traversing the country and encountering the tyrants of days gone by.
