	Earth Abides, by George Rippey Stewart
		It was originally published in 1949, and its author, George R. Stewart, was better known as a writer of nonfiction than fiction, but Earth Abides is easily his most recognized work—it has been in print off and on for nearly fifty.
		Stewart’s visions of desperation were apt and vivid.
		One example of this is when Ish returns to an empty world, and drives through town after town honking his horn, and then waiting for the answering honk that never comes.

	Who Was Who in Name Study
		Although not an academic himself (he had taught in the early 1930s at the Chicago Law School), he was able to persuade several scholars in onomastics, such as George Stewart, Erwin Gudde and Robert Ramsay, to actively support the Society, and encourage other scholars to participate in its meetings and write for its journal.
		George Stewart was born in Sewickley, Pennsylvania on May 31, 1895.
		Stewart's first major work in the field of onomastics was his Names on the Land, perhaps the most readable, yet scholarly book ever written about the process of placenaming in the US; it was published in 1945, revised in 1958 and 1967.

	Powell's Books - by
		George Stewart creates a world that could very well exist at any moment in this new millenium.
		With all the threats of holocaust and new "virii" coming out of the jungle, this scenario is as likely today as it was when Stewart wrote the book in 1949.
		I often think of the images that Stewart describes when I hear of another wildfire in the Northwest or another hurricane coming toward the US coast and wonder if we are any better equipped now than the vision that confronted Ish when he came out of the California woods.

		Stewart's title and epigraph echo the Book of Ecclesiastes: "Men go and come, but Earth abides." One of the sadder, gentler Millennium SF Masterworks reissues.
		Stewart was a professor of English which maybe explains this.
		To my mind, it read more like a "put your money where your mouth is" example of writing for his students rather than something written for the masses.
