This book has been considered by academicians and scholars of great significance and value to literature. This forms a part of the knowledge base for future generations. So that the book is never forgotten we have represented this book in a print format as the same form as it was originally first published. Hence any marks or annotations seen are left intentionally to preserve its true nature.
First contact story delivered in a serviceable style and with little of the moral complexity which would come later to the genre. Only really interesting as an artifact of the era.
