About the author
George Gordon Dewey wrote science fiction under the name G. Gordon Dewey. Reliable bibliography records identify him as an American author born in Primrose, Nebraska, on December 7, 1906, and they show that he published in English under both G. Gordon Dewey and Gordon Dewey.
Although he does not appear to have been a prolific writer, his work has stayed visible among classic pulp and magazine-era science fiction readers. Project Gutenberg lists Time and the Woman and Hoiman and the Solar Circuit, and reference bibliographies connect him with a handful of short stories from the early 1950s, including work associated with time-travel themes.
That relatively small output is part of what makes him interesting: Dewey belongs to the wide circle of writers who helped fill out the imaginative landscape of postwar science fiction magazines, even without becoming a household name. He died in 1975, leaving behind a compact bibliography that still attracts readers looking for overlooked vintage SF.
