Nonfiction Science-Fiction - The Gernsback Years by Everett F Bleiler
Posted on 2010-03-18

More Science-Fiction - The Gernsback Years by Everett F Bleiler Complementing "Science-Fiction: The Early Years", which surveys Science Fiction books from its beginnings through to 1930, this volume covers all science-fiction printed in the genre magazines - "Amazing", "Astounding" and "Wonder", along with offshoots and minor magazines - from 1926 through 1936. Product Details •Hardcover: 730 pages •Publisher: Kent State University Press (August 1998) •Language: English •ISBN-10: 0873386043 •ISBN-13: 978-0873386043 •Product Dimensions: 11.3 x 8.8 x 2 inches •Shipping Weight: 5.3 pounds (View shipping rates and policies) •Average Customer Review: 5.0 out of 5 stars See all reviews (1 customer review) •Amazon.com Sales Rank: 1,831,988 in Books (See Bestsellers in Books) 17 of 17 people found the following review helpful: Simply put: an essential survey/guide to the 1926-1936 era of (mainly) American sf. Bleiler has read _everything_ published in the magazines during this time period, gives a synopsis of the story, offers historical notes, and quite often comments on the importance (or lack thereof) of the story. David H. Keller comes in for some deadly bone-crushing comments. Bleiler has also tracked down biographical information, going so far as to search Social Security death records. And there's much more, far too much to list here. Having read a fair number of these stories, his comments are quite accurate (most of what was published by Gernsback is awful dreck, but there were a few important stories published too). If you have any interest in the this early era of SF this is an essential book for the shelf. And it's fun to read the plot summaries of some absolutely dreadful stories! Nonminated for the 1999 Hugo for Best Related Book (previously the Non-Fiction category). Here is a HUGE book covering the Magazines that Hugo Gernsback was associated with... The original PDF from FR was over 900 MB, but I managed to get it down to 220 MB with still good quality...it is, of course, fully searchable and bookmarked. A must for the collector/fan ! [100MB, 100MB & 46MB Rars with 10% Recovery Record and Authenticity Check] PS. Yes, I know that the filenames have an ‘e’ instead of an ‘a’ in Gernsback, but buggered if I was going to fix it an re-up it
