Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition. Crosscurrents/Modern Fiction series edited by Harry T. Moore. Near fine copy; in a nearly fine, illustrated dust jacket that is price-clipped. The discovery of a lost manuscript by H. G. Wells is an exciting literary event, and the publishers of the Crosscurrents Modern Fiction series were proud to present the first publication of Wells s The Wealth of Mr. Waddy. "A study of H. G. Wells s correspondence reveals that as early as October 1898 he was discussing this new comic novel, and that he continued work on the manuscript into March 1899. Then after more than a year s silence about it in the existing correspondence, he says (April 23, 1900), Just at present Kipps turns out well, and from there on he refers only to Kipps. In the Preface written in 1925 for the Atlantic Edition of his works, Wells recalls, Kipps was written in 1903-4. It is only a fragment of a much larger and more ambitious design. The original title was The Wealth of Mr. Waddy. it was put aside, and I m afraid destroyed. Fortunately Mr. Wells was mistaken, for the discarded materials of the original manuscript are in the H. G. Wells Archive at the University of Illinois, where Professor Harris Wilson, the textual editor of this edition, found them.".

First appearance of an unpublished novel by prolific H.G. Wells (in manuscript ca.1900). This work soon led to Wells' larger novel Kipps (written 1903-4). NEAR FINE COPY in most respects but someone--a reviewer presumably--has humorously written in ink "Wake up, Harry" and made a minute correction on p.vii, the first page of the Preface by Harry T.

"A study of H. G. Wells's correspondence reveals that as early as October 1898 he was discussing this new - comic - novel, and that he continued work on the manuscript into March 1899. Then after more than a year's silence about it in the existing correspondence, he says (April 23, 1900) , - Just at present Kipps turns out well, - and from there on he refers only to Kipps. Edited and with an introduction by Harris Wilson, this is part of the Crosscurrents / Modern Fiction series. "Herbert George "H. G." Wells (21 September 1866 13 August 1946) was an English writer. He was prolific in many genres, including the novel, history, politics, social commentary, and textbooks and rules for war games. Wells is now best remembered for his science fiction novels and is called a "father of science fiction", along with Jules Verne and Hugo Gernsback. His most notable science fiction works include The Time Machine (1895) , The Island of Doctor Moreau (1896) , The Invisible Man (1897) , and The War of the Worlds (1898). He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature four times." (from Wikipedia).
