The Time Machine

The Time Machine is a science fiction novel by H. G. Wells. A scientist known only as "The Time Traveler" tells the tale of his voyage to the year 802,701 A.D. and beyond, where he observes the end of human civilization as we know it, as well as the beginning of the end of the world. Generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle that permits an operator to travel purposely and selectively forwards or backwards in time, this story is hailed as a classic of its genre!
