Chapter I The Ulysses S. Grant Mission
What would happen if the Confederate Forces captured General Ulysses S. Grant? First off, he was the best general the Union Forces had and that could open the way for the North to lose the war. Secondly, he would never have become President of the United States of America, as he would not have been the hero he was. And with the Confederacy winning the war, Great Britain might have entered the war on their side. This would have split America up forever ensuring that neither would become a super power and after awhile Japan would be the real power in the Pacific. The club sends Robert Andrews, a world-class balloonist and hang glider to prevent this from happening. After a long train and boat ride with Union Forces he finally gets to the General when things quickly go wrong. With the help of Angie Verdi, a pretty seamstress and volunteer nurse, Robert chooses to use technology from our time to complete the mission.
Chapter II The Civil War Spirit Mission
Why would a Union soldier’s spirit linger around the battlefield for a few hundred years? This question was answered by a special mission back to the time of the Civil War by one of the Time Watchers group, Fred Wiatre. As a club member he dresses like his ancestor did, a Captain in the Union Army and easily enters the camp where Trooper Ponds, the future ghost, is alive and well. His mission: To find the reason that Trooper Ponds stays around after he’s killed.
