""THE CONQUEST OF GOLA"" and other stories by Leslie F. Stone

This book is a selection, in chronological order, of Leslie F. Stone's stories relevant to the themes of gender and diversity. In addition, I include a transcript of a speech this pioneer American science fiction writer made at Baltcon in 1974, when looking back at her career. As explained in introductions to each story, these documents are relevant to current literary discussions as well as to questions of race, feminism war, and fascism in the 1930s. I assembled the collection with the hope to renew the seriousness with which this writing can be taken as a reflection of the literature and culture created in the space between the two world wars. My intention is for the book to be useful for teaching feminism "in unlikely places," like in the early days of a genre once thought to be the domain of men; and to those involved in the research and teaching of both the history of science fiction and the interrelations between feminism and popular culture.
