First edition later issue with inserted publisher's catalogue dated "2/02" "THE END OF AN EPOCH is a great plague story whose protagonist Adam Godwin has the experiences which often parallel literally and allegorically those of Shiel's Adam Jefferson." - Stableford Scientific Romance in Britain 1890-1950 p. 136. "M. P. Shiel claimed without citing names that after a publisher rejected the manuscript of his THE PURPLE CLOUD it published a plagiaristic version of the story. This is probably the book in question for the author would seem to have read Shiel's story. I would not consider the relationship strong enough to constitute plagiarism though for Green handled the general situation in an original manner. The incident if such exists suggests that Green was in some way associated with BLACKWOOD'S. Of the two novels Shiel's with its brilliance and vision is the better but THE END OF AN EPOCH is not discreditable and we regret that A. Lincoln Green whoever he was wrote no more." - Bleiler Science-Fiction: The Early Years 919. Clarke Tale of the Future 1978 p. 27. Locke A Spectrum of Fantasy p. 95. Bleiler 1978 p. 86.
