Otto Willi Gail was a German science journalist and author celebrated for his detailed and realistic depictions of science and technology, particularly in rocketry and space travel. His works, crafted with a passion for engaging young readers, drew upon his deep knowledge from studying physics and electrical engineering, as well as his close connections with German space pioneers. These novels, acclaimed for their accuracy and influence on early utopian literature, brought the exciting world of science and the future within reach for a broad audience.
First published in English in 1931, this novel for young adults is an accurate mirror of many of the space travel concepts that have been discussed by pre-war European experts. The author's imaginative theories about the history of the Earth -- many of which presage those of Velikovksy and von Daniken -- are explored, and the original illustrations are included as well as an afterword about the author and his sources.
