What is The immortal storm;: A history of science fiction fandom, (Classics of science fiction) about?

Reprint of the ed. published by Atlanta Science Fiction Organization Press, Atlanta * Illustrated with photographs from the collections of Sam Moskowitz and Robert A. Madle * Preface by A. Langley Searles * Including an Index compiled by Jerry Burge and Carson Jacks A lively history of the science fiction movement, which started with a small group of devotees who shared a common enthusiasm—but whose differences kept them in almost continuous conflict. Many of those early fans subsequently became todays outstanding writers of science fiction.— Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, Robert Heinlein, among others. Here we see them from the beginnings of their careers — their points of view, opinions, battles, some of which seem as violent as the interplanetary wars they later wrote about. Rarely has so careful and loving a record been written of so imaginative, contumacious and individualistic a group; rarely has a group (in moments of cooperation) produced so enviable record of achievement. Long out of print, this edition contains twelve pages of photographs plus a highly useful and comprehensive index.
