Though Author James Gould Cozzens is not yet 30 he has already hung up a U. literary record: his last two novels have been Book-of-the-Month Club choices.
Not many readers would yet think, of Cozzens in terms of the late great Joseph Conrad, but even fewer will quarrel with the Book-of-the-Month Club's choice.
Author Cozzens has a Kiplingesque flair for dramatizing hard facts, a shrewd zest in making a plain tale move and glitter.

Except that the decade was redeemed with the 1950 masterpiece "Destination Moon", loosely based on Robert A. Heinlein's novel "Rocketship Galileo." Heinlein was heavily involved, as Technical Director, with this breakthrough, arguably the first science fiction film with realistic spaceflight portrayed, including the best moon walk we saw before Apollo 11!
To be fair to the actors: James Arness, Lloyd Bridges, Gene Autry, John Barrymore, Robert Blake, John Carradine, Lon Chaney Jr., Buster Crabbe, Shemp Howard, Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre, Bela Lugosi, and Vincent Price acted their hearts out.
But the best actors and actresses were mostly on the "A" list and Science Fiction mostly on the "B" list, with occasional exceptions (Jimmy Stewart in Frank Capra's "It's a Wonderful Life").
