A Honeymoon In Space is an adventurous story about a well to do man who abducts a woman aboard his ship and takes her on a tour of the solar system where they encounter hostile Martians, helpful Venusians, \"angelic\" Ganymedians and two headed monsters. George Griffith was born in 1857 in Plymouth England. His father, a cleric, had little money at his death, but had provided young George with access to his extensive library and the fantastic works of Jules Verne. On retiring as a seaman he spent several years working as a teacher and began writing for the local newspaper. Griffith is considered \"the first professional science fiction writer\" because he produced story after story, on demand, for his editors and publishers. | A Honeymoon in Space by George Griffith, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
