Garrett Putman Serviss
Edison's Conquest of Mars
Paperback
(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform Nov. 26, 2015)
Historically, the work is one of the earliest to employ the interplanetary theme. It is the first to portray a battle fought by space craft in the airless void; and possibly the first also to propose the use of sealed suits that enable men to traverse a vacuum. Of the more minor twists of plot initially found here that have since become parts of the "pulp" science-fiction writers' standard stock-in-trade, there are literally too many to mention.
