Synopsis

1898 edition, illustrated "The Time Machine" is a science fiction novella by H. G. Wells. The work is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposely and selectively forwards or backwards in time. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now almost universally used to refer to such a vehicle. "The Time Machine" has been adapted into three feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. A seminal and hugely imaginative work of early science fiction, "The Time Machine" is the first and greatest modern portrayal of time-travel. This is a book that belongs on the shelf of every science-fiction fan. H.G. Wells (1866-1946) was a professional writer and journalist. Among his most popular works are The Time Machine (1895); The Island of Doctor Moreau (1896), The Invisible Man (1897), The War of the Worlds (1898) and The First Men in the Moon (1901).
