Summary:
Herbert George Wells was perhaps best known as the writer of such vintage works of science fiction as ENOUGH TIME Machine and War of the Worlds. Nonetheless it was in his short stories, written when he was a man getting into a literary career, that he first explored the tremendous potential of the scientific discoveries of your day. He described his stories as “a miscellany of inventions,” however his passion for research was tempered by an awareness of its horrifying destructive powers as well as the threat it might pose towards the human race. A consummate storyteller, he produced fantastic animals and machines completely believable, and by placing ordinary men and women in extraordinary situations, he explored what this means to become alive in a century of rapid scientific progress. “Little Mother Up the Morderberg,” is a humorous tale about a mom and boy trekking to the very best of a hill.
