Beskrivelse

·        Who coined the term "sci-fi"?

·        What widely-read 1930s non-SF novel inspired a series of stories about flying, space-traveling cities?

·        Was there really a Communist front organization that produced nearly two dozen of the best science fiction authors, editors, and publishers, almost none of whom were Communists?

 

Perhaps the "Cliff's Notes" of classic science fiction, writer Sourdough Jackson's essays keep alive the books, authors, editors, publishers, magazines, and movies that made science fiction the successful subject and industry it is today.

 

Jackson's love and deep knowledge of SF is obvious in That Old Science Fiction, originally published as a monthly column in DASFAx, the newsletter of the Denver Area Science Fiction Association.

 

That love is brought to you here, complete with a forward by Robert Vardeman, author of The Cenotaph Road and dozens of other science fiction novels
