Robert Duncan Milne

Đây là ai?

Robert Duncan Milne (7 June 1844–15 December 1899) was a late-19th century San Francisco science fiction writer whose work was published primarily in newspapers of the time, and the magazine The Argonaut. He was born in Cupar, Scotland, and moved to San Francisco in the 1860s, where he remained until his death. Milne is considered one of the earliest full-time science fiction writers in America. His stories explored speculative concepts such as climate catastrophe, cryogenics, and drone warfare, making making him a successor to writers like Jules Verne and a precursor to those such as H.G. Wells. Despite his forward-thinking themes, much of his work remained obscure and was unavailable for long after his death.
