About the Book

Fully Occupied Years (Book ID 91049) should interest the former employees of BIOSIS, the company whose history is given in these pages. But it should also capture the attention of a wider audience. By providing the history of this once-major information provider, the book offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the information industry in the years leading up to the Internet Age. As such, the book should prove valuable to those interested in economic history. NOTE: this book is available in ebook format!


About the Author

George Tomezsko is a writer, essayist and historian with several previous books to his credit. His major interest in history is the War Between the States. The war in the Shenandoah attracted his attention when he wrote an earlier book, An Afternoon in May, that told the story of the Corps of Cadets from the Virginia Military Institute at the Battle of New Market in 1864. He wrote the present book to ensure the real significance of the military drama then being played out in the Shenandoah Valley is not forgotten.
