What If Slavery Had Been Geographically Confined?", "1789: Could the
Articles of Confederation Have Worked?", "1801: Would Aaron Burr Have Been
a Great President?", "1832: What If the Second Bank Had Been
Rechartered?", and "1850: What If the Compromise of 1850 Had Been
Defeated?"; and Graham's "1887: Whites and Indians — Was There a
Better Way?", "1917: What If the United States Had Remained Neutral?",
