Whiteside, Thomas

Entry updated 28 June 2019. Tagged: Author.

(1918-1997) UK-born journalist and author, in USA most of his life; most of his work, like The Tunnel Under the Channel (1972), is nonfiction. Much of this is focused on Ecological issues, as in Defoliation: What Are Our Herbicides Doing to Us? (1970). He is of sf interest for the Near Future novel Alone Through the Dark Sea (1964), in which three narratives interweave, each based on isolation: a sea captain whose ship is sinking; the inhabitants of a virtually unknown Island; and the pilot of a Spaceship en route to a new planet.
