From Rob HansenÕs Foreword: ÒLONCON II was organised by SFCoL, the Science Fiction Club of London, the last UK Worldcon to be run by such a small group of fans. But who exactly were the members of SFCoL, what was the group all about, and why were they also known as the Scottish Fan Club of London? YouÕll find answers to these and other questions in this volume, as well as discovering what Operation Andy Capp was, why there was so much drama around the drama award, which noted writer demanded whisky from inside a Dalek, and why the Rolling Stones didnÕt perform at the convention.Ó
ALL PROCEEDS FROM SALES OF THIS PAPERBACK WILL GO TO THE TRANSATLANTIC FAN FUND.
