H. G. Wells was one of the most influential authors of the late
19th and early 20th centuries. He is best remembered today as the
author of classic works of science fiction, such as The Invisible
Man, The War of the Worlds, and The First Men in the Moon. He was
also the author of The Outline of World History, an ambitious
chronicle of the world from antiquity to the beginning of the 20th
century. Through essays and reviews, this volume traces the
critical reception of his works. An introductory essay overviews
Wells's literary career and provides a context for understanding
his works. Each of the sections that follow treats one of his major
works, according to the publication date of his story. Within each
section are reviews, essays, or excerpts that exemplify the
critical response to that particular work from the time of its
appearance to the present day. A bibliography at the end of the
volume lists the most important modern critical studies of Wells
and indicates the tremendous contemporary interest in Wells as an
author.
