Peter Tsouras is a retired analyst of military all-source intelligence for the U.S. Government (National Ground Intelligence Center and the Defense Intelligence Agency). He is also a retired Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve and has written 30 books on military history and alternate military history as a military historian and biographer.
“When it comes to history, everyone loves to ask, ‘What if?’ No one
does this better than Peter Tsouras, who explores one of the
biggest ‘what ifs’ of the American Civil War, namely, what would
have happened had Great Britain and France decided to take up arms
against the Union in 1863? The result is a gripping narrative of
battles from Maine to Louisiana, with even Washington under attack.
New weapons and staunch presidential leadership might well hold the
key to ultimate victory. To say more would spoil the story of
familiar names in new places in a plot full of surprises that will
hold the reader spellbound.”—Brooks D. Simpson, ASU Foundation
Professor of History, Arizona State University, and author of
America’s Civil War
“The second volume of this trilogy brings the newly expanded war to
the United States. Tsouras understands the dynamics of
mid-nineteenth century armed forces. He presents a convincing
strategic situation. He describes battles so vividly one can smell
the gunpowder. He keeps historical exposition, situation-changing
technologies, and fictional characters to a minimum. And he shifts
scenes with a smooth mastery that sustains suspense and keeps the
pages turning. A Rainbow of Blood is one hell of a good
read!”—Dennis Showalter, professor of history at Colorado College
