About this ebook

Now with an Historical Afterword by Ron Miller
Featured in Ron Millers _The Conquest of Space Book Series.Ó This 1705 novel by Daniel Defoe is a prime example of the early use of an imaginary voyage to the moon to satirize life, politics and culture on earth. Defoe's novel is made even more remarkable by his prescient use of scientific devices, such as a flying machine propelled by an internal combustion engine.

At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

About the author

Vietnam veteran, former lawyer, former bus driver, and now bestselling author, David Drake tells a military story like no other. His readers recognize that he can take them where no one else can, with gut-wrenching description that puts them face-to-face with the enemy, and in the midst of the action right on the battlefield. He helped create the audience for mercenary military science fiction with his best-selling "Hammer's Slammers" books. Drake graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Iowa, majoring in history (with honors) and Latin. His stint at Duke University Law School was interrupted for two years by the U.S. Army, where he served as an enlisted interrogator with the 11th Armored Cavalry in Vietnam and Cambodia. Drake has a wife, a son, and various pets.
