The Greeks and Romans speculated about the Moon almost two thousand years before H. G. Wells or Jules Verne wrote about it, but interest peaked from the late 1800s when the prospect of lunar travel became more viable. This anthology presents twelve short stories from the most popular magazines of the golden age of SF - including The Strand Magazine, Astounding Science Fiction and Amazing Stories - and features classic SF writers as well as lesser-known writers for dedicated fans of the genre to discover. Includes stories by Arthur C. Clarke, Judith Merril and John Wyndham."--Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a Moon $v Fiction. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008107821 651 7 $a Moon. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240375 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026529 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1726489 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1726489 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026542 700 1 $a Ashley, Michael, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50002405 830 0 $a Science fiction classics (British Library) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2018164935 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191116021633.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1E39B9DE083F11EABF3FA51A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
