“Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.”

The Silver Age of Science Fiction saw a wealth of compelling speculative tales — and women authors wrote some of the best of the best. Yet the stories of this era, especially those by women, have been largely unreprinted, unrepresented, and unremembered.
Until now.
Rediscovery includes an erudite and well written foreword and introduction by Laura Brodian Freas Beraha and Gideon Marcus respectively.
This title will ship with a bookplate, signed by Gideon Marcus.
All proceeds go to Worldbuilders, a geek-centered nonprofit supporting humanitarian efforts worldwide.

Gideon Marcus is a professional space historian, author, and public speaker with a passion for teaching. He literally wrote the book on the early automated American space program in a series of articles for Quest: Space Quarterly. Gideon is the founder of the Serling-Award winning and Hugo-nominated web project, galacticjourney.org, the mission of which is to recover the lost voices of SFF and the Space Race, making the past relevant to today. To that end, he has assembled a diverse team of twenty individuals, covering Science Fact and Fiction across the globe as it existed exactly 55 years ago. His educational series of lectures/panels, performed at conventions and public venues across the West Coast, are must-see events, both entertaining and enlightening. To see what Gideon Marcus is working on, join the Galactic Journey.
