Product Overview
George Allan England (1877-1936) was an
explorer and author of, inter alia, five science
fiction novels and over a dozen magazine serials
and short stories from 1905 on; these appeared
predominantly in Frank A. Munsey's magazines,
where he was one of the more popular writers of
the pre-1926 period, ranking as the closest rival in
science fiction to Edgar Rice Burroughs.
The Alibi first appeared as an All-Story Weekly
serial and was subsequently adapted as a silent
film. In it, a young bank employee, falsely
convicted of embezzlement, spends two years
in Sing Sing before being cleared.
