Paperback. Condition: New. World War I began disastrously for the English when the Germans routed them at Mons, Belgium, on August 23 and 24, 1914. On September 29, 1914, the Anglo-Welsh writer Arthur Machen fictionalized this encounter in a newspaper story, claiming that the English were saved by the appearance of angelic bowmen sent by St. George. But his fiction became accepted as fact. The believers--notables G. K. Chesterton, Arthur Conan Doyle and C. S. Lewis, along with almost forgotten figures like Harold Begbie, Phyllis Campbell and T. W. H. Crosland--wrote pamphlets, testimonies and poems, performed music and created motion pictures attesting to the existence of the guardian angels. This history of the Angels of Mons controversy for the first time collects and annotates Machen's work and the responses it inspired, most of which have not been available since their publication a century ago. Also reprinted for the first time are several of Machen's responses to the believers, including "The Angels of Mons: Absolutely My Last Word on the Subject" and "The Return of the Angels: This Time They Are at Ypres.".…

First Edition. Thick Quarto. , xxx, 730 pages, title index, bibliography along with story descriptions. One of the most thorough bibliographies of early science fiction. It is fully comprehensive within its scope-that is, it sets out to describe every story in every English-language sf magazine published during the eleven years in question. It covers the complete fiction contents not only of the three major magazines mentioned in the subtitle-Amazing, Astounding, and Wonder-but also of all the associated Quarterlies and Annuals, and of such minor magazines as Air Wonder Stories (July 1929-May 1930), Flash Gordon's Strange Adventure Magazine (December 1936), Miracle Science and Fantasy Stories (April-July 1931), and the sole British title represented, Scoops: The Story Paper of Tomorrow (February-June 23, 1934). It even details the contents of the first three issues of the pulp Thrilling Wonder Stories-the down market successor to Gernsback's failed Wonder Stories-in order to bring the narrative up to the end of 1936. One of the appendices, "Magazine Histories and Contents," gives very full publishing details of all these magazines, with individual issue contents, cover artist and internal illustrators' names, size, pagination, and much other matter. A fine copy bound in red cloth lettered in black, spine lettered in black. with its original glassine cover.…
