Jerzy Zulawski’s On the Silver Globe is one of those rare books that we read with enjoyment in childhood and rediscover with pleasant surprise in our maturer years. Concerned with an ill-fated expedition to the Moon, it celebrates the kind of heroism that Zulawski’s Swedish contemporary, the explorer Salomon August Andree, epitomized—the kind of heroism that eventually opens new regions of life experience for humanity. The book is not without its flaws; but its enthusiasm for heroes, the basis of its appeal up to now, will continue to ensure that it will always have readers. (RMP)
