War  of  the  Worlds  by  Herbert  George  Wells  (H.  G. 
Wells)  was  published  in  1898  at  a  time  when  he  wrote 
a  series  of  novels  related  to  a  number  of  historical 
events  of  the  time.  The  most  important  of  these  was  the 
unification  and  militarization  of  Germany.  The  story 
written  in  a  semi-documentary  style,  is  told  in  the  first 
person  by  an  unnamed  observer.  It  tells  of  the  events 
which  happen  mostly  in  London  and  the  county  of 

fthe  Worlds 

Surrey,  hngland,  when  a  number  or  vessels  manned  by 

aliens  are  fired  from  Mars  and  land  on  Earth.  (Summary  by  Rebecca)
