Classic Science Fiction. TIME TRACKS by KEITH LAUMER - Great Time Travel Stories. Keith Laumer provided entertainment for millions of happy readers with his perennially popular series about James Retief, intergalactic diplomat. As well as the Retief stories he wrote numerous other science fiction novels and stories that were equally entertaining - and often had a streak of humor.

The 1972 cover blurb : "One of the most prolific and gifted writers in a very fast field. In this arena Laumer is close to being one of the old-timers (no pun intended, despite the theme of this collection). He is, quite simply, very good indeed and one helluva lot of fun to read. Five variations on a theme -- Well, four really. The fifth is just so damn much fun it didn't seem fair to leave it out. We don't know anyone but Keith Laumer who could make Lucifer, a quantum professor, entropy, dimensions, negative-R, luck, devils and a beautiful Samoan girl all hang together so delightfully. And it does have, or could have, something to do with time distortion if you look hard enough. But there are still four more for those of you who insist on finding out about honest-to-God time travel. An area in which Laumer is an authority if not a downright originator."
