Day after bloody day they withstood the terrible onslaught, buying time for the Greeks to rally their forces.

Within it, world events between 1933 and 2106 are speculated with a single superstate representing the solution to all humanity's problems.

Herbert George Wells (1866 - 1946) was a prolific English writer who wrote in a variety of genres, including the novel, politics, history, and social commentary. Today, he is perhaps best remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to such novels as "The Time Machine" (1895), "The Invisible Man" (1897), and "The War of the Worlds" (1898). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
