Notes: | "The autobiography of a wholly fictitious individual who is born in the year 1920, and who reviews in his eightieth year his life's career and accomplishments. The major achievement of the principal character of the story, Akkad Pseudoman (pretended man), is the realization of a youthful dream that it is possible to create a means for escaping the earth's gravity, circling the moon, and returing alive with records to the earth."- Pref.
