    The ebook (viewed in HTML format) contains no images and does not represent print page numbers or divisions. All listings in the Contents are hyperlinks to the story headings. There is no back matter.

    The collection was originally published by Thomas Nelson & Sons, during 1911 in both UK and US, undated; with another undated edition at least 1913 in the UK. Comparison with one copy of a Nelson ed./printing (viewed at HathiTrust) shows one difference in story titles: "Aepyornis" rather than "Æpyornis". Infact, Gutenberg uses "AEpyornis" throughout the text, two capitals 'AE'. The introduction, overtly written for the Nelson collection, closes simply "H. G. Wells", no date--here, as in the Nelson edition.
