Description
As editor of Astounding Science Fiction and Analog, John Campbell shaped the direction of science fiction â€" ushering in its Golden Age. Overseeing a stable of writers that included Heinlein, Clark, and Asimov, he helped the genre gain status as serious literature. However, Campbell was a writer too, and here we have collected some of his early work. Along with a half-dozen short stories and novelettes, we have included an introduction and story-by-story commentary by one of Campbell's great writers, William R. Burkett, Jr.
