 R. García y Robertson: The Moon Maid
Despite the title of R. García y Robertson's first collection of short stories, The Moon Maid and Other Fantastic Adventures, the underlying theme of the collection is the grittiness of history, not the fantastic worlds examined in the early science fiction of Edgar Rice Burroughs or A. Merritt.
The significance in "Cast on a Distant Shore" lies in García y Robertson's rather uncommon portrayal of the role humans have in the galaxy.
