    I have read "“The Dead Past” by Isaac Asimov (1956)" and "The Dragon and >the George by Gordon R. Dickson (1976)"

    Outside, by the hall incinerator drop, Retief paused
    long enough to take from his briefcase a large buff envelope,

    Dickson, Blish and Asimov I am sure I have read back in the day.
    I am sure of the Blish which is about a sorcerer's attempt to unravel
