Beam Me Up--to Venus!
In an experiment with sending matter by means of radio, Myles Cabot accidently sends himself to Venus. Here he discovers a planet divided between the Formians, giant ant men, and the Cupians, human-like creatures with wings and antennae who have been enslaved by the Formians for over 500 years. Cabot falls in love with a pretty Cupians who turns out to be a princess. Using his knowledge of radio, he constructs a device to help him communicate with the natives, who use their antennae like radio transmitter/receivers. Cabot escapes from the Formians and joins the Cupians. He develops rifles (unknown on the planet) and eventually helps the Cupians rise against the Formians. He communicates his adventures to earth by launching several large projectiles to earth with copies of an account of his adventures, a kind of interplanetary "message in a bottle." Out of print, so use your local inter-library loan.
