Geocache Description:

Science Fiction is an imaginative literary genre which poses the effects of extrapolated scientific principles or discoveries on the behavior of individuals or society. Old School refers to a time before the internet, CGI movies, and cable television, when most good science fiction (with a few TV and film exceptions) was published in books or magazines. This series highlights some great classic old school science fiction stories.
