Complete and unabridged, with 54 full-page plates by Odilon Redon, Frederic Edwin Church and Johan Christian Dahl. A newly married couple take a private spacecraft round the solar system as a wedding trip, and find each world inhabited on its own terms. Griffith wrote fast-moving scientific romances for the illustrated weeklies in the years when Wells was writing his, and outsold him at the time. This edition binds 54 plates of painting with the text, among them works by Odilon Redon, Henry Pether and Frederic Edwin Church, and restores and colours its five illustrations.
