This is the last issue of The Heinlein Journal original editor Bill Patterson prepared before his passing April 21st, 2014. This issue would have been completed and issued a few months later. When Bill’s Heinlein Journal files came to The Heinlein Society, the WordPerfect file from which this issue was created were among them. Rather than trying to complete the issue as Bill would have, we are presenting it as Bill left it, incomplete. There is an excellent index to all other back issues included.
