Synopsis
**Four tales from one of the greatest minds in science fiction.**
Robert A. Heinlein is widely and justly regarded as the greatest practitioner of the art of science fiction who has ever lived.
Here are two of his greatest short novels:
Gulf -- In which the greatest superspy of them all is revealed as the leader of a league of supermen and women who can't quite decide what to do with the rest of us.
Lost Legacy -- In which it is proved that we are all members of that league - or would be, if we but had eyes to see.
Plus two great stories -- ''Elsewhen'' and ''Jerry Was A Man'' -- two of the Master's finest: one on the nature of Being, the other on what it means to be a man (human).

About the Author
ROBERT ANSON HEINLEIN (1907-1988) was born in Missouri. He served five years in the US Navy, then attended graduate classes in mathematics and physics at UCLA, took a variety of jobs, and owned a silver mine before beginning to write science fiction in 1939. His novels have won the Hugo Award, and in 1975 he received the first Grand Master Award for lifetime achievement.
Review
Praise for Robert A. Heinlein:
''He made footsteps big enough for a whole country to follow . . . We proceed down a path marked by his ideas. He showed us where the future is.'' --Tom Clancy
''The word that comes to mind for him is 'essential'. As a writer--eloquent, impassioned, technically innovative--he reshaped science fiction in a way that defined it for every writer who followed him . . . He was the most significant science fiction writer since H. G. Wells.'' --Robert Silverberg
