Old School Classic and New Wave Science Fiction From James's Golden Age

Harlan Ellison once said that the true "Golden Age of Science Fiction" was 12. He was not far wrong. From the time I was eleven to the time I was twenty-five (1962-1976) I was a complete SF junkie. Since then, I still have a great affection for the genre; I just no longer had that same lunatic glee. Fortunately, the SF from the mid 50s to the mid- 70s was some of the most innovative and interesting writing that the genre had ever seen. Here are some of the most fondly remembered books from my own "golden age".
