by Eric Leif Davin
On This Page
Description
Partners in Wonder revolutionizes our knowledge of women and early science fiction. Davin finds that at least 203 female authors published over a thousand stories in science fiction magazines between 1926 and 1965. This work explores the distinctly different form of science fiction that females wrote, offers a comprehensive bibliography of these works, and provides biographies of 133 of these women authors.Tags

Oops. Essays and the bibliography. No stories. Immensely valuable, but not at all what I wanted.
