Captain Bullard series chronicles the journey of a young and daring officer until his success as a fleet admiral of space ship. This series seems like a precursor tothe modern day space exploration series like Star Trek. This edition includes 9 of his famous deep space adventures: Admiral's Inspection: It was a new trick from ancient history-the Admiral's Inspection. But man, what an inspection that turned out to be! White Mutiny: A rule book skipper in a prize-winning ship is dynamite enough for causing a mutiny! Blockade Runner: Can a good technician make unlikely things turn into highly effective weapons? Bullard Reflects: A harmless sport turns into a dangerous sport of outlaw busting! Devil's Powder: The drug was getting aboard somehow and making people do peculiar things! Slacker's Paradise: It seemed like a paradise until the commander of a space rowboat found a gigantic enemy battleship that was determined to surrender to him! Brimstone Bill: Bill is a crook, a hell-fire-damnation specialist in the art of collecting cash and amarvellous orator with gadgets. But can Bullard turn him around? The Bureaucrat: Bullard, a Grand Admiral now is caught in a red tape of high position but can he do a small favour to his friend? Orders: The last Bullard Saga. Malcolm Jameson (1891-1945) was an American Golden Age science fiction author whose writing career began when complications of throat cancer limited his activity as a naval officer. Drawing from his experiences of navy and warfare he gave a personal touch to all of his stories.
