Culled from the highly collectible (and highly priced!) early issues of pulp magazines such as Weird Tales  Amazing Stories  and Science Wonder Quarterly  these tales seethe and foam with the vigor of unrestrained imagination. Hamilton had yet to earn his (sometimes undeserved) reputation as \"World Wrecker\" or \"World Saver\" when these stories were published  but as these tales show -- he was well on his way. In this volume  the Earth is threatened countless times  but one lone hero (usually a genius-scientist) stands between triumph or total annihilation. The influence of A. Merritt and M.P. Shiel is felt in several tales of lost  exotic lands  and Hamilton himself begins to exert his own small influence on the genre with several stories of temporal dislocation and cosmic menace. Author  editor  bookdealer  art collector (and co-owner of Weird Tales  Ltd.) Robert Weinberg delivers an introduction with details on the history of early American science fiction  the context of these stories in relation to their contemporaries  and his own personal memories of knowing -- and publishing -- Edmond Hamilton.
