This memoir celebrates the life of Canadian science fiction author Charles Grant Blairfindle Allen (1848 - 1899).

His literary career began with non-fiction essays on popular science, and he later went on to write nearly 30 fiction novels. He is considered to be a pioneer of the science fiction and detective fiction genres. Bound in original dark brown cloth boards with gilt title to spine.
