The Last Ride of German Freddie Summary
| Author Note: "The Last Ride of German Freddie" sprang fully-armed from my head in a discussion in Joe Haldeman's topic in the online forum Duelling Modems, in which I suggested that it might be fun if someone wrote an alternate-history story in which Nietzsche went West and tested his theories to destruction at the O.K. Corral. No sooner had I suggested this than I realized that I should be the one to attempt the story. As with some of my other alternate histories, all the characters actually existed, from German Freddie and Josie to Fellahy the Laundryman. Aside from introducing Freddie as a witness and eliminating some characters (like Bat Masterson and Texas John Slaughter) who were occasionally present in Tombstone but had no effect on the action, I have followed history very precisely up till the moment of Freddie's intervention in the O.K. Corral gunfight." Sidewise Award Nominee |
