The War In The Air

 

 

Author: H. G. Wells
Foreward/Introduction: Scott Slaughter

The War in the Air: And Particularly How Mr. Bert Smallways Fared While It Lasted is a military science fiction novel written by H. G. Wells in 1907. (Wells also wrote The War Of The Worlds.) Bert Smallways is the hero and main character.

The War in the Air is (as are many of Wells' books) notable for its prophetic ideas, images, and concepts, including the use of aircraft in warfare, as well as conceptualizing and anticipating events related to World War I.
