Tourmalin's Time Checks is a novel written by F. Anstey and first published in 1891. The story revolves around the character of Mr. Tourmalin, a wealthy and eccentric inventor who has developed a time machine. Tourmalin's invention allows him to travel through time and visit different eras, including the past and the future. However, his experiments with time travel lead to unexpected consequences, and he finds himself in a series of comical and dangerous situations. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful young woman, a group of time-traveling thieves, and a mysterious figure who seems to be manipulating the course of history. The novel is a humorous and satirical take on the idea of time travel, and Anstey's witty writing style and clever plot twists make it an entertaining read for fans of science fiction and comedy alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
