| abstract | - It is set in a timeline where Alfred von Schlieffen survived to personally oversee the successful implimentation of his famous plan for two-front war against France and Russia. Germany wins the Great War in 1914, and fully occupies France and Belgium. When a communist revolution erupts in Russia in 1916, Kaiser Wilhelm II helps his cousin and former enemy Tsar Nicholas II put it down. The main action of the story itself is set in 1929, as sergeant Adolf Hitler of the Feldgendarmerie is sent to Lille in pursuit of communist agitator Jacques Doriot. The narrative is a series of letters from "Uncle Alf" to his niece/lover, Angela Raubal. In these letters, he expresses his frustration with the complacency of the local German officials; his disgust with the "degraded" French; his utter devotion to the Kaiserreich, and; his unrestrained (possibly inappropriate) passion for his beloved Geli.
