Born this day: 03/13/1911 (d. 01/24/1986)
Ron Hubbard was a prolific pulp author and key SF voice of the Golden Age. His 1940 novel Final Blackout, serialized in Astounding Science Fiction, follows a soldier restoring order to war-ravaged England and is seen as his finest SF work. He returned to the genre with Battlefield Earth.

One of the many things we learned at #Caltech in 1992-1994 was about #LRonHubbard. I've mentioned that there were a number of his books in the "Blacker Hovse" dorm library, and as a result I can honestly say that I've read Battlefield Earth cover to cover.

I honestly don't exactly know how I managed that, except to say that for a span of adolescent years I regarded it as a virtue to push through as many books as possible and read everything to completion no matter how unpromising it was. For Battlefield Earth is terrible writing. J. K. Rowling looks workmanlike and competent in comparison to Battlefield Earth.
