Description: H. G. Wells was a literary writer very closely involved in education. From his early career as a teacher and his first writings onwards, his work always attempted to instruct. James considers Wells's involvement in the teaching of history. Novels such as "Joan and Peter" discuss the ideas which led to Wells's writing "The Outline of History", which Wells hoped would found a World State and end war among nations.
