Best Technical Manual about the Lost in Space universe, December 26, 2005

By Glora T. Anchors "Alpha Control Press" (Dunlap, TN)

Published in 1988, this was not only the first book about Lost in Space but remains the best technical manual about the Lost in Space universe! Limited to 1,000 copies printed, its 102 pages cover all aspects of the Alpha Control mission. Crew biographies and photos are presented along with a history of Alpha Control and a description of the working of the Jupiter 2, plus complete blueprints of the Jupiter 2 (interiors and exteriors), the Chariot, Space Pod, weapons and other ships and equipment. A really nice book.

SysOp's Note

In my opinion, The Alpha Control Reference Manual is the most comprehensive reference source about the fictional universe of Lost In Space to date. The authors do a marvelous job of filling in many of the gaps left in the show. I especially love their explanation of why Dr. Smith went from being a cold, snarling villain to the lovable misfit he became.
