Federation Builders by Schmidt Gerald (7 results)

Condition: New.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if Napoleon had truly won-& a new nation rose from the ashes of empire?In this gripping alternate history, the Peace of Warsaw (1812) reshapes Europe. A humbled Tsar Alexander surrenders vast territories, & the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is reborn under King Jozef Antoni Kossakowski-with French bayonets monitoring. But fragile peace brings new dangers: Russian subversion, ethnic tensions, noble resentment, & the shadow of old betrayals.Enter Blazej Radziwill-the young "Panicz," heir to a powerful Lithuanian estate. Privately feeding intelligence to Russian agents while managing his family's lands, Blazej walks a knife's edge between loyalty & deception. When the cost of his double life becomes unbearable & a visionary mentor opens his eyes to a bolder dream, he undergoes a profound transformation.Guided by the wise Witold Tyszkiewicz & grounded by peasant leader Tadas Balciunas, Blazej turns from spy to architect of something revolutionary: a voluntary federation of seven nations-Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, & Slovakia. Drawing inspiration from the American Constitution & Swiss cantons, this Concordia promises equal representation in a bicameral Diet, local autonomy, shared defense & trade, religious freedom for all faiths, & the gradual end of serfdom.But powerful enemies-ruthless Tsarist agents like Frol Kamieniev & Sergey Karenin, conservative magnates clinging to the old order, & even internal doubts-will stop at nothing to crush the vision. Assassination attempts, political purges, secret societies, multi-ethnic negotiations, & battlefield tests of unity push Blazej & his allies to their limits.A sweeping tale of redemption, political intrigue, & audacious hope, The Federation Builders explores what happens when divided peoples choose strength through cooperation rather than conquest. Rich in historical detail yet boldly imaginative, this is alternative history at its most compelling-where personal metanoia forges a new destiny for nations.Perfect for fans of The Years of Rice & Salt, Fatherland, or 1632, this epic asks: Can a better world be built from the ruins of the old?(This is a work of fiction. While real historical figures & events anchor the story, many post-1812 developments are invented. AI assisted with the cover & parts of the writing process, but the vision, research, & narrative are the author's own.) This item is printed on demand.
