A Piece of Science Fiction History

Orson Welles' famous radio broadcast of the War of the Worlds caused nationwide pandemonium when it aired just before Halloween in 1938. This book contains the original radio script, newspaper articles describing the pandemonium during and after the famous broadcast, and the story behind the story. The author of this book, Howard Koch, wrote the radio broadcast script, and went on to write the script to the movie Casablanca. This book is a treasure.
