Anyway I remember an old Outer Limits episode where a squad of modern infantry men get sent back to Little Big Horn to fight for Custer and get killed anyway. The fellow soldiers can't find them but notice their names suddently appear on a historical grave marker in modern time. I'm seriously gonna get Remember the Alamo.
Also remember the Saturday Night Live skit "What if Napoleon had a B-52?" followed by "What if Spartacus had a Piper Cub?"

Happy Festivus "Festivus for the rest of us"
Don't watch SNL that much anymore, so I missed those skits. But I thought that Little Big Horn episode was from The Twilight Zone. Could be wrong; it's been an awful long time since I've seen it. But of all the sub-genres of sci-fi, time travel has to be my favorite. So I do get a kick out of reading alternate history books.

Speaking of such, I've been interested in reading Harry Turtledove, but I want to read his books in order. Which book should I start out on for his alternate history of the Civil War and afterwards?
