Seller's Description
THIS ISLAND EARTH 1st Edition Hardcover Book, Shasta Publishing, 1952!! Classic Sci-Fi! $10.00!!
This Classic Science-Fiction Story was made into a Live Action Movie in the 1950's that's considered a Classic today! This is in VF to VF/NM condition with All pages here and complete!! This is missing the Dust Jacket, but is excellent otherwise!
In 1949 and 1950 a science fiction serial by Raymond F. Jones appeared in Thrilling Wonder Stories. Within half a decade that serial would make history as the basis of the first science fiction movie about interstellar travel and interstellar war.
This Island Earth is a book of heroes. The first half of Universal’s 1955 film closely follows the novel but then diverges from the intellectual challenges faced by Dr. Cal Meachem to more cinematic fare. Reading the novel now, one cannot help but marvel at how Jones’ views everything from labor disputes to the predictability of computers influenced later movies and television, making This Island Earth, the novel, even more influential than-one would guess from This Island Earth the movie.
