		In fact, Harry had trimmed and installed a large flout screen in their front window in order to give the family some measure of privacy.
		Along with hundreds of other Beatle fans lucky enough to experience the Harrisons' fantastic hospitality, my parents and I will forever be in debt to George's remarkable family, who so warmly welcomed a straggling family of Yanks into their home and their hearts on that rainy Sunday morning all those years ago.

	Classic Science Fiction Reviews
		Harry Harrison has enjoyed a long and accomplished career writing serious science fiction, but he's also indulged himself with several romps in the domain of the deliberately camp.
		But Harrison pulls off a minor miracle in Galaxy Rangers, by writing the entire novel is a superheated version of the gosh-wow, boy's-adventure-fiction prose of a hack SF juvenile.
		He makes the exposition as clumsy as possible, the dialogue as far from human speech as possible and the characterizations as flat and chauvinistic as possible--all in a manner instantly recognizable to anybody who remembers the kind of SF novel tolerable only to readers who stopped maturing at age 12.

		By contrast, Harrison's is really sharp satire, and he uses the liberties that science fiction gives him to make his points with great force and absurd humour.
		Harrison raises issues of politics, racism, sexism and a thousand other touchy subjects in a hilarious and outrageous book.
		Harrison gets in all of Smith's trademarks: The hysterical prose, the cliffhanger chapter endings, the amazing BEMs, the questionalbe science, the all-American cardboard idiocy of the heroes, the vapidity of the heroines, the simplistic fl-and-white morality, the wonderful and imaginitive settings, the jingonistic patriotism, the nonstop action, even Smith's love of a good steak.
