H. G. Wells predates Sci-fiction. Most of his books in the field were written before the term was coined in the 1930s. Along with Mary Shelley, Jules Verne, and Robert Louis Stevenson, his work laid the foundation for almost every major form of Science Fiction. Just as many other books written since... more info

from 1st World Library - Literary Society
Price: $12.61
Customer Review:
Even good writers produce a turkey or two. This is definitely Well's gobbler. I thought he was going in the right direction when he did some character development in a couple of places; it started to get interesting, but then he lapsed back into post-atomic war preaching mode.

| | 10. |  | Leaves of Grass
from Wilder Publications
Price: $20.02
Customer Review:
Since there was some confusion in the comments section as to what volumes were or were not truly the "First Edition," I though I'd confirm that the Penguin Classics version entitled "Leaves of Grass: The First (1855) Edition" is in fact the first, slim, volume of "Leaves of Grass" published in 1855.... more info
