Little Wars is a book written by the renowned science fiction author H.G. Wells. Published in 1913, it is a guidebook for miniature wargaming, a hobby that involves simulating battles with miniature soldiers and terrain. The book provides rules and instructions for playing the game, including how to build and paint miniature soldiers, how to create terrain, and how to conduct battles. Wells also includes historical background on various conflicts, such as the Boer War and the Napoleonic Wars, and provides suggestions for adapting the game to different time periods and scenarios. The book is notable for its emphasis on fair play and sportsmanship, as well as its advocacy for using the game as a means of promoting peace and understanding between nations. Overall, Little Wars is a fascinating look at a popular hobby and an important historical document in the development of miniature wargaming.And suddenly your author changes. He changes into what perhaps he might have been--under different circumstances. His inky fingers become large, manly hands, his drooping scholastic back stiffens, his elbows go out, his etiolated complexion corrugates and darkens, his moustaches increase and grow and spread, and curl up horribly; a large, red scar, a sabre cut, grows lurid over one eye.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
