Notes

From ISFDB: ‘“B. T. H. Xerxes” is a pseudonym used in the anthology “An ABC of Science Fiction”, created so that there would be a story by an author whose name began with “X”. The author is probably either Tom Boardman, Jr. (the editor of the anthology) or Brian W. Aldiss. (Information from Robinson’s “Who’s Hugh”).’
