Jack Williamson, was an American science fiction writer, often called the "Dean of Science Fiction. His first published story went to the pulp magazine âAmazing Storiesâ when he was 20 years old. By the 1930s he was an established genre author, and the teenaged Isaac Asimov was thrilled to receive a postcard from Williamson, whom he had idolized, which congratulated him on his first published story and offered "welcome to the ranks". Williamson remained a regular contributor to the pulp magazines but did not achieve financial success as a writer until many years later. Williamson continued to write as a nonagenarian and won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards during the last decade of his life, by far the oldest writer to win those awards.A very nice First edition copy in the scarce DJ.
