Episode description
Chapters 4 and 5 of H.G. Wells’ classic novel. I have to admit I found a few rather racist passages troubling to read, and considered editing, or omitting. But in the end I realized it isn’t up to me to edit history, or Mr. Wells. It remains a fantastic story, and I’m sure H.G. would have different views today than he did back then, and might even wish to travel back in time to re-write a few lines.
