BLAIR, Andrew

BLAIR, Andrew
(? -1885)
   Scottish medical doctor and writer whose Annals of the Twenty-Ninth Century, or The Autobiography of the Tenth President of the World-Republic (1874) celebrates, at times ponderously, Earth-boring, the complete ecospheric control of the planet, and interplanetary travels during which the protagonist visits several worlds whose human inhabitants demonstrate various levels of spiritual perfection.
