Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good+. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover 8vo. John C. Winston, Philadelphia, PA. 1953. 210 pgs. First Edition/First Printing. Alex Schomburg designed DJ has shelf-wear present (DJ is rubbed and worn with some light sunning present to the spine). Bound in green cloth boards with titles present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. The story follows a group of explorers from the 20th Century who travel back to the "Age of Reptiles" via a government time-travel facility, a trip financed by a wealthy sportsman who has little regard for rules, or laws, other than his own. It turns out the sportsman does has an agenda of his own and has somehow managed to bring his hunting rifles with him so that he can bag a dinosaur "trophy" ( I guess there was no pre-jump government inspection done). Anyway, things go down hill after that and now the time-travelers are stranded in the Mesozoic till the next scheduled pick-up, at least a week away. The author's narrative is fast moving with some twist and turns in the plot that kept me on the edge of my seat (my younger self that is ). Time-travel stories are always fun to read and usually involve some sort of paradox to be resolved, this one is unique: What would happen to a time-traveler who, while visiting the distant past, is killed? In essence he died before he was even born and, therefore, never existed anyway. What effect would this have on the time-line and the people who now live in an alternate future? What kid, or adult, could resist that kind of mystery? EB; 8.0 X 5.4 X 2.0 inches; 214 pages.…
