A Plunge Into Space by Robert Cromie
A Plunge Into Space By Robert Cromie
Second printing 1891
Featuring preface by Jules Verne
Presented is a second edition of the rare sci-fi title "a plunge into space" by Robert Cromie. This edtion features the often disputed preface by jules verne, which was not included in first printing. After second printing, the publisher dropped this title as a rift had occurred with another famous author of the time, HG Wells, over plagiarism. Bridging the science fiction gap between Jules Verne and HG Wells, this book has a pivotal role in the evolution of sci-fi during the turn of the century.
