It was first published by Doubleday & McClure Co. in 1899. All the stories had first been published in various monthly periodicals and this was the first volume to collect these stories. <p> These are the stories contained in this collection showing the periodicals in which they were first published : The Crystal Egg (short story, The New Review, May 1897), The Star (short story, The Graphic, December, 1897), A Story of the Stone Age (novella, The Idler, May-September 1897) comprising:, Ugh-Lomi and Uya, The Cave Bear, The First Horseman, Uya the Lion, The Fight in the Lion's Thicket, A Story of the Days To Come (novella, The Pall Mall Magazine, June-October 1897) comprising:, The Cure for Love, The Vacant Country, The Ways of the City, Underneath, Bindon Intervenes, The Man Who Could Work Miracles (short story, Illustrated London News, July 1898) <p> This is a freshly published edition of this culturally important work, which is now, at last, again available to you. <p> Enjoy this classic work. These few paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside: <p> It came and went like a flash, but it gave him the impression that the object had for a moment opened to him the view of a wide and spacious and strange country; and, turning it about, he did, just as the light faded, see the same vision again. <p> …Wace, convinced both watchers that, so far as this visionary world was concerned, the crystal into which they peered actually stood at the summit of the endmost mast on the terrace, and that on one occasion at least one of these inhabitants of this other world had looked into Mr. <p> …Caves crystal was in two worlds at once, and that, while it was carried about in one, it remained stationary in the other, which seems altogether absurd; or else that it had some peculiar relation of sympathy with another and exactly similar crystal in this other world, so that what was seen in the interior of the one in this world was, under suitable conditions, visible to an observer in the corresponding crystal in the other world; and vice versa. <p> …Caves first impulse, directly Caves body had been taken upstairs, had been to write to the mad clergyman who had offered five pounds for the crystal, informing him of its recovery; but after a violent hunt in which her daughter joined her, they were convinced of the loss of his address. <p> …Caves to be in some physical, but at present quite inexplicable, way en rapport, and we both believe further that the terrestrial crystal must have been-possibly at some remote date-sent hither from that planet, in order to give the Martians a near view of our affairs.
