Title: The Eclipse Express Title Record # 11364
Author: John Russell Fearn
Date: 1952-04-00
Type: NOVEL
Language: English
Note: "This novel incorporates in modified form much of Eclipse Bears Witness, which appeared in the March 1940 issue of Science Fiction, as by Ephraim Winiki; and also Valley of Pretenders as by Dennis Clive, originally published in Science Fiction in March 1939. An amazingly prophetic story which forecasts the worldwide televising of the first moon journey (contrary to the repeated assertions by so-called 'experts' that SF got it wrong), and uncannily describes an actual scientific experiment (the filming an eclipse from the stratosphere) carried out by Concorde decades later." Information on pages 44-5, Harbottle/Holland.
