Windstars and Cinder - H.G. Wells and the Inspiration of the Potteries
Known as the father of science fiction, H.G. Wells is as famous today as he was in his heyday of the 1890s. What isn’t so well known however, is the time he spent as a younger man amidst the burgeoning industrial landscape of the Potteries; and how that experience helped inform the imagery of his best-known work, The War of the Worlds, and also change his own worldview forever. Mythstoric Journeys, the hardback anthology collection from Eli, is available here! Visit thelocalmythstorian.com
