Some may be interested in this new graphic novel:
Smith, L. Neil, et al. Roswell, Texas. Big Head Press, 2008.
From Amazon.com: "In an alternative universe, Davy Crocket (sic) survived the 1836 siege at the Alamo, and Santa Ana (sic) did not. As a result, Texas remained an independent republic and never joined the United States.
In 1947, Texican President Charles A. Lindbergh learns that a flying saucer has crashed near the far west Texas town of Roswell. He dispatches his best friend, 'Wild Bill' Bear, and three of his best Texas Rangers, to investigate. Our four heroes find themselves in a race against agents from the United States, the Franco-Mexican Empire, the California Republic, and the Third-and-a-half Reich, to find that crashed saucer and learn its secrets.
And when they do, they will change the course of history, again."

Hmm! Sounds like an interesting what-if-tale. Charles Lindberg's presidency of the Texican Republic does seem a bit unlikely and almost comical. Lindy was a political novice and I don't think he would have made president of Texas even if he was lucky? Lindberg was also a Nazi or German lover, so he more than likely would have formed a partnership with Hitler to find the mysterious flying saucer. Just a what if opinion.
