註釋What if the best way to avoid an ecological nightmare is to make another nightmare come true? What if the best way to humanity in the 22nd Century involved forcing a defeat on the Allies in the Second World War?"Mussolini's Redemption" tells the story of how a time traveler with a database full of designs for weapons, electronics, and green tech changes Italian culture, commerce, and industry."Book 1 - Prologue to War" follows Joseph San Giamino from his role as first contact specialist in 2150 to his new position as the world's richest man in 1920.San Giamino had an unfair investing advantage, being from the future in a spacetime remarkably similar to this one. He knew what was going to be invented and who was going to invent it when. And he had detailed plans and specifications for most of those inventions and for technology decades ahead of what could be found in this spacetime.But it wasn't just the technical specifications he possessed. San Giamino knew where and when to invest, where and when to divest, and his portfolios would show it by 1920. He had arrived in 1910 with $50 million in gold, cash, and securities to invest thanks to training time-jumping hops to the past his sponsors made. He'd been able to turn that into tens of billions by 1920.His sponsors were a group of aliens who had been manipulating human DNA and culture for millennia. They had an incredible plan to save humanity from mistakes it had made after the aliens abandoned Earth. San Giamino was on a mission of vital importance and more than money was at stake. All that he had done up to now was in preparation for this move to Italy.If he couldn't affect the necessary changes in the 1920s he would fail after 1939 when it counted most.
