The prequel to Heinlein's later New York Times best seller, Friday. Lost Legacy: in which it is proved that we are all members of that league of the superhuman–or would be, if we but had eyes to see. Plus a double dose of great short stories, with two of the master's finest: one on the nature of being, the other on what it means to be a man. The second story, "Jerry Was a Man," was adapted for the TV series Masters of Science Fiction, and is now available on DVD. About Robert A.
