The War of the Worlds...
so terrifying, it rocked the world when H. G. Wells reported it in 1897--and again, in 1938, when Orson Welles broadcast it.

But there was far more to the story than ever was told. Two of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous characters, Sherlock Holmes and Professor Challenger, played pivotal roles in the historic happenings. Here are the facts, never before revealed, of the confrontation: two of the most remarkable intellects the Earth ever produced pitted against beings intelligent enough to conquer space. Read now --

how Holmes and Challenger knew an invasion was coming

how they survived the occupation of London

how they captured an alien invader

how they deduced the origin of the invaders

the reason for the landings--and the fatal flaw in the plan for conquest.
