Description
This is H. G. Wells' 1915 novel, 'The Research Magnificent'. The story is presented as the efforts of one Mr. White to compile, collate, and preserve the life's work of his deceased academic friend, William Porphyry Benham. The tale centers around the recounting of Benham's attempts to live a noble life-an endeavor that brings him into conflict with his friends, his mother, and his wife. The Research Magnificent is widely considered as being among the top 100 greatest books of all time, making it a must-read for all lovers of literature and a book not to be missed by fans of Wells seminal work. "The Father of Science Fiction" was also a staunch socialist, and his later works are increasingly political and didactic. Includes a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
