He
knew that he could not, would not, give up what he had found here in the
service of the project as long as it was in his power to cling to it.
"Yes." It was a very simple answer, but when his eyes met Ashe's, Ross

The Time Traders
by ANDRE NORTON
If it is possible to conquer space, then perhaps it is also possible to
conquer time. At least that was the theory American scientists were
exploring in an effort to explain the new sources of knowledge the
Russians possessed. Perhaps Russian scientists had discovered how to
transport themselves back in time in order to learn long-forgotten
secrets of the past.
That was why young Ross Murdock, above average in intelligence but a
belligerently independent nonconformist, found himself on a "hush-hush"
government project at a secret base in the Arctic. The very qualities
that made him a menace in civilized society were valuable traits in a
man who must successfully act the part of a merchant trader of the
Beaker people during the Bronze Age.
