Description
Completes the series of Wells' (1866-1946) science fiction classics. In a long introduction and extensive footnotes, editor Leon Stover argues that the anthill society of the moonlings was not a dystopia but a model of what Wells advocated for humans. He draws on Wells' other fiction and his non-fiction political works to buttress the claim. Appended are a review by Arnold Bennett, two essays by Wells, his and Jules Verne's views of each other, and a couple contemporary scientific articles. c. Book News Inc.
