Work Description
This eBook is a sample of the Robert A. Heinlein Virginia Edition Collection. The Virginia Edition represents authoritative texts for all of Robert Heinlein’s published fiction and nonfiction, newly typeset, whenever possible from the editions put in final form by Heinlein’s own hand. In other cases, the definitive texts are represented by editions restored to their intended state, in publications overseen directly by Virginia Heinlein after her husband’s passing. Mrs. Heinlein’s role in perpetuating her husband’s work and legacy was at all times crucial, both during and after the writing. It is truly fitting that her name be remembered in close connection with his.
The published fiction and nonfiction has been selected and authenticated by scholars and authorities designated by the Prize Trust and the Heinleins’s longtime agent, Eleanor Wood. Also included are 450,000 words of newly selected correspondence, most never before published, collected in three volumes. Each volume includes a frontispiece photograph of the Heinlein as well as an introduction by Dr. Robert James and William H. Patterson, Jr., Heinlein Scholar, detailing the circumstances under which each work was written. Manuscripts and correspondence were provided by the Robert A. Heinlein Archive of the University Library, Special Collections, University of California, Santa Cruz.
The Virginia Edition is a limited edition of 2,000 sets bound in leather and printed on 50-pound white acid-free and buffered paper that meets all U.S. archival standards.
