George Revelle

George Revelle appears to have been a pulp-era science fiction writer whose work surfaced in the late 1950s. Reliable online records for his life are very thin, but his fiction is preserved through Project Gutenberg and other genre-bibliography sources.

Two confirmed George Revelle stories available today are Operation Boomerang and Puppet Government. Project Gutenberg identifies both as science fiction works from the 1950s, and Puppet Government is noted there as having originally appeared in Worlds of If Science Fiction in October 1957.

Because so little biographical information is readily confirmed, the most interesting way to meet him is through the fiction itself: compact, idea-driven stories from the magazine era of science fiction, with an eye for how ordinary people react when institutions, technology, or large public missions start to close in on them.
