North America has been overrun by invaders from the East who imposed their own civilization, condemning the natives to a furtive existence in the forests and hills. Rogers encounters a rebel unit of Americans and readily joins their attempts to rebuild their society, using his wartime experience to help mount a revolt against their oppressors. This futuristic fantasy -- accompanied by its sequel, <i>The Airlords of Han </i>-- offers rollicking adventures and remarkably prescient predictions of later technological advances.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>American science-fiction author Philip Francis Nowlan (1888-1940) is best known as the creator of Buck Rogers, a character who inspired a comic strip that ran for 40 years as well as radio, television, film, and video game adaptations.
