Selected Convention Reports

Edición de la obra Don't Try This at Home

This book collects most of David Langford’s reports on British and occasionally overseas SF conventions, from Mancon 5 (the infamous 1976 Eastercon in Manchester) to Loncon 3 (the 2014 World SF Convention in London Docklands). Warning: contains fannish esoterica! At least in the earliest reports. There are thirty-two articles in all – mostly from fanzines but a few professionally published – which between them cover 35 conventions plus a few bonus items such as a very strange book launch party held underground in the Chislehurst Caves. In all, with a brief introduction and an index of coverage by convention name, the text runs to approximately 79,000 words.
