The Proteus Operation
by James P. Hogan
It's 1974. America is preparing for the inevitable war with Nazi Germany, which over the past three decades has slowly and methodically conquered or taken control of most of the world. The only hope lies in time travel. A mysterious breakthrough in technology will allow a team of agents to be sent back to 1939 and attempt to influence the leaders of the time to take Hitler and his ambitions seriously. It seems like an impossible task, as people and attitudes are not any more malleable in 1939 than they are at any other time. Of course, this being a story with Nazis, there is also intrigue, and gunfire, and blowing stuff up. The plot gets rather convoluted as the story progresses, but all in all it was an entertaining read.
