Welcome to The Anachronist, a time traveling review of science fiction old and new. Every episode we go back to a different year in history and read their science fiction. This episode we go back to the year 1934 to read “Sidewise in Time” by  Murray Leinster. A mere mathematics professor kidnaps 7 students and takes them through a rift in time to who knows what end. We also go on a long digression about bank robbing in the 1930s and the evil Edgar J. Hoover.
