Your assertion is too broad. Please explain for the reader, who is likely to be unfamiliar with these authors, what their stories were about. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 12:41, 2 December 2008 (EST)

:I did, the basis of each story is that the protagonist is taken to the moon through various means (all based around what was known about science at the time). Each protaganist has various adventures, unique to each story. However, this page isn't about defining about what each work of fiction is about, it is about defining what Sci-Fi is and how the genre came about, if you or anybody else are that keen to know what these stories are about either read the books, google the titles or wait until a page is created describing what each book is about. It is indisputable that these authors were writing Sci-Fi at the time, a quick check of ''Encyclopedia Brittanica'' will confirm that (hence the references, incidentally). I don't mind reverts when I am factually wrong, but please do not revert simply because you do not automatically know when the facts I have presented are wrong or right. If you are unsure of the facts check the references provided and use Google, a simple search using the authors names and the word Science Fiction or Sci-Fi will confirm the facts as stated.--[[User:Ieuan|Ieuan]] 13:03, 2 December 2008 (EST)
