Review of 'The Green Hills of Earth' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Collection of stories, first published in 70 years ago. All predate manned space flight (60 years ago), but many capture the science. Some are a bit dated and some do little more than showcase his political leanings. In other words, classic Heinlein.

My favorites were probably "The Long Watch" and "Gentlemen, be seated", and "We Also Walk Dogs" was cute. "It's Great to Be Back" just wasn't that good.
