About the Book

Hello .... My name is R. Augusta Hammond. I would like to try to give you some insight as to the contents of this book. I have been a lover of books ever since I was a little boy in grade school. I have my fourth grade teacher to thank for that. Mrs. Jones, her real name, was a wonderful teacher and very patient. When I became a teenager, I fell in love with science fiction and history and math. Let me say, and of course you know this, that Edgar Rice Burroughs, Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein and many of the other writers of my age gave me so many enjoyious hours of reading and adventure. I thought the time had come to give something back. Only a few people in my book are real. All the people that we rescued are real. All the rest are fictitious and any similarity to anyone living or dead is not intended. I made up the names.
