Great Book,
By John R. Krawczyk II (miramar, fl United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Battle of Dorking, and When William Came (Oxford Popular Fiction Series) (Paperback)
It's sad that they are no longer in print. They were in print just a few months ago. Good book, fiction about a war between Germany & England in the 1880's or so. Well done & easy to read but too short! Much better than H.G.Well's stuff in terms of an interesting story.

This review is from: The Battle of Dorking, and When William Came (Oxford Popular Fiction Series) (Paperback)
The short story "The Battle of Dorking" was the genesis of the 'Invasion Literature' genre. It first appeared in Blackwood's Magazine in 1871. For a lot more historical information about this book and its later influences, see the Wiki pedia article on "Invasion Literature" which is quite good.
