 Miesel dealt with the divergence of the fictional 20th century history from actual history by converting the series from future history to alternate history.Of the six stories not collected in "The Psychotechnic League" trilogy, "The Entity" and "The Stranger Was Himself", which had been included in the original "Startling Stories" timeline, were delisted; "Star Ways" had been published in book form as "The Peregrine"; and "The Snows of Ganymede", "The Acolytes", and "The Green Thumb" were simply not included.In 2017/18 Baen issued "The Complete Psychotechnic League" in three volumes which included all the stories in the timeline.
