A Few Details

James Blish, The Quincunx Of Time, CHAPTER THREE and CHAPTER FOUR.

"The age of Dun and Bradstreet..." (p. 39)

I accepted that on every previous reading but have now googled it.

"...violations cases took Jarndycean lifetimes to try..." (ibid.)

Likewise.

"Weinbaum ordered a twenty-four-hour Dinwiddie watch..." (ibid.) (?)

"...a New Dynasty poet named George Macbeth." (p. 45)

Is this the right George Macbeth? What is the "New Dynasty"?

"'Barratry is a deadly weapon in a government's hands.'" (p. 49)
