Centuries Apart

<i>Centuries Apart</i>, written by Edward T. Bouvé, is a speculative fiction novel published in the 19th century that follows a group of Union soldiers during the Civil War who are sent by President Lincoln to a quasi-medieval England located in Antarctica, known as South England. This isolated land, cut off from the rest of England since the 1500s, features a dysfunctional monarchy and a society reminiscent of Mark Twain's works. The narrative is presented through the journal of one of the officers, blending elements of adventure, romance, and political intrigue.
