Only recently have space stations become a reality, but Edward Everett Hale was the first person to put that dream into print, with his tales of "The Brick Moon." Written in 1869, the book describes many of the functions modern satellites would fill: communications, navigation, weather observation, and so on. Full of humor and gentle satire, the story is as readable today as it was nearly 140 years ago. Newly designed and typeset in a modern 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Brick Moon: And Other Stories The story of The Brick Moon was begun in my dear brother Nathan's working-room in Union College, Schenectady, in the year 1870, when he was professor of the English language there. The account of the first plan of the moon is a sketch, as accurate as was needed, of the old chat and dreams, plans and jokes, of our college days, before he left Cambridge in 1838. As I learned almost everything I know through his care and love and help, directly or indirectly, it is a pleas ure to say this here. The story was published in the Atlantic Monthly, in 1870 and 1871. It was the last story I wrote for that magazine, before assuming the charge of Old and New.
