  • An Informal History of the Hugos (subtitled A Personal Look Back at the Hugo Awards, 1953–2000) is a 2018 non-fiction book by Welsh-Canadian author Jo Walton. It examines whether the Hugo award nominees were the best five SF and fantasy books of the year, using as reference shortlists from other awards in the genre. It was well-received, and was nominated for the 2019 Hugo and Locus Awards, in the non-fiction category. The book initially appeared as a series of articles on Tor.com, from 2010 to 2011. These were written a year before Walton herself won the Hugo Award for Best Novel (for Among Others, in 2012). The Tor.com posts drew frequent discussion, with comments from editors Gardner Dozois, David G. Hartwell and Rich Horton, which were included as part of the book. (en)
