A Good Old-Fashioned Future

Bruce Sterling · Bantam Spectra (New York) · 1999

The US Bantam Spectra paperback original is the true first; no US hardcover was issued. The UK Millennium/Gollancz edition (ISBN 1857987101) is a later reprint dated 2001 rather than a precedent, so it does not displace the 1999 Bantam printing as the first appearance in book form.
