Alternative History: what if?

[Epictetus]

This is sort-of on topic, I guess.

My wife gave me two books for Christmas: What if? and More What if?. I have only just started, but these two books seem to have a number of different "what if?" ancient history articles.

The Plague That Saved Jerusalem, 701 B.C.
The Persians Win at Salamis, 480 B.C.
The Premature Death of Alexander the Great
Romans win at Teutoburg Forest
Romans win at Adrianapolis
Socrates Dies at Delium, 424 B.C.
The Triumph of Antony and Cleopatra at Actium
Pontius Pilate Spares Jesus

I can make a new thread when I finish reading, if anyone is interested in this sort of thing.
