H.G. Wells
traversing time
by W. Warren Wagar
"The English writer Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) is one of the giants of science fiction. His early novels, The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds, invented a number of themes now classic in science fiction. But he also wrote mainstream novels, journalism, political tracts, a memoir, and purely didactic fiction designed to support his various causes. In this comprehensive new critical study, W. Warren Wagar traces Wells's obsession with the unfolding of public time - in short, with the history and future of humankind - to show the persisting and provocative relevance of Wells's work."--BOOK JACKET.
