    H. G. Wells (1866–1946), is often called the “Father of Science Fiction.” While science fiction was his most popular genre, Wells also wrote on history, politics, and made social commentary. His “scientific romances” speculated about the future, scientific advancements, and outer space. His works include The Time Machine, and The War of the Worlds.

    In the aftermath of the First World War, many leaders and intellectuals believed a League of Nations, the forerunner of today’s United Nations, would ensure world peace. The vision had no more effective or tireless advocate than Wells, who with a panel of distinguished collaborators, including Viscount Grey, Gilbert Murray, and J. A. Spender, made the case in this brief 1919 monograph.
