Tales of Time Travel - Book Two Clark South

Time-travel continues to exercise its mesmeric fascination upon writers, readers and editors of science fiction alike. This is probably because almost all of us, at one time or another, have longed greatly to visit either the future or the past. Perhaps, in view of the dangerous paradoxes such travel must involve, it is a good thing that such horological journeys have to date been confined to the printed page. This book consists of a collection of four short science fiction stories about time travel. The stories are (1) The Ordeal of Colonel Jones (Colonel Johns, that famous Revolutionary War hero, had the unique?and painful?experience of meeting his great-great-great-great granddaughter. Now maybe you can't change history, but what's there to prevent a soldier from changing his mind about the gal he is going to marry?), (2) The Time Mirror (Here was a strange mirror indeed! It reflected an image all right, but not an image from the same era in history!), (3) Prison of a Billion Years (Adam Slade was a man who had nothing to lose by making a break for it. The trouble was, he knew that no one had ever escaped from the?), and (4) The House from Nowhere (New neighbors are always exciting. But the anachronistic MacDonalds offered a bit too much). This book is the second one in a series of seven books on this topic. It is a pleasure to publish this new, high quality, and affordable edition of these timeless stories.
