First Edition. [Scientific romance] FIRST EDITION, second state. Octavo (20 x 14cm), pp.389; [2] publisher's advertisements. Publisher's blue cloth, gilt titles to spine, with colour plate pasted to front board; edges uncut. Illustrated with sixteen black and white plates by Michaels (complete). No ink names, a little foxing within, edges spotted/toned. Unusual presentation plate to pastedown; from 'Home & Colonial Stores Ltd.' (1914). Covers show some use, lightly rubbed, moderate soiling. Very good. In this novel Wells imagines the changes in geopolitical warfare brought about by aircraft, when whole cities can be destroyed remotely by bombardment. The story follows Bert Smallways, who is, by a series of somewhat unbelievable coincidences, a witness to all the most important military conflicts and returns. The story is narrated by an omniscient figure, reporting the story as history -- the novel thus qualifies as both a future history, and now as an alternative history. Geoffrey H. Wells [35].
