Empires of Dirt is the second book in Dennis Mansfield's trilogy of time-travelling, historical thrillers. Just as the first book of the trilogy To Trust in What We Cannot See asked what would history be like if Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Trotsky and Tito had together died in 1913, Empires of Dirt asks an exact opposite question: What would happen if the assasinations were stopped of Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy and M.L. King, Jr. Empires of Dirt is the story of leaders being saved and history taking a distincly differetnt turn - thus changing the world, but not as readers might expect.
