Model railroads and real railroads

The United States endured a bitter civil war and embarked on the complex process of Reconstruction, aiming to eliminate slavery and secure civil rights for African Americans in the South. Despite the ratification of constitutional amendments guaranteeing these rights, their full realization would not come for another century. Johnson, who assumed the presidency only after Lincoln's assassination, bears significant responsibility for this delay. His actions enabled the growth of Jim Crow laws and entrenched racial inequality throughout the South in Reconstruction's aftermath.

In this powerful sequel to Reconstructed—where Abraham Lincoln survives his assassination and successfully rebuilds the nation—President Martin Luther King Jr. now leads a transformed America. Following JFK’s tragic death, King steps into the presidency, determined to end the Vietnam War and redefine America’s role on the global stage. Pressured by Cold War fears and inner opposition, he dares to challenge traditional power with his unwavering commitment to nonviolence and diplomacy.
