Science fiction before 1900
Well-researched and very clear, this book is a great introduction to early science fiction with several close readings. The last, on _A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court_, is the strongest. Alkon makes it clear that he is providing a sounding--not a thorough overview or even superficial overpass; as such there were many topics and texts I found missing here. However, as a sounding aimed at those looking for an introduction to early science fiction, it's an excellent place to start.
