Summary
A scientist invents a machine that he claims will travel through time. His friends, however, laugh at the idea. So the Time Traveler climbs aboard his machine and ends up thousands of years in the future. He meets a race of gentle humans called the Eloi. But the Time Traveler is swept up in a fight for his life against evil underground creatures known as Morlocks. Even worse, his Time Machine, his only chance to escape, is trapped deep inside the Morlock caverns.

From the jacket flap
When the Time Traveller courageously stepped out of his machine for the first time, he found himself in the year 802,700--and everything has changed. In another, more utopian age, creatures seemed to dwell together in perfect harmony. The Time Traveller thought he could study these marvelous beings--unearth their secret and then retum to his own time--until he discovered that his invention, his only avenue of escape, had been stolen. H.G. Well's famous novel of one man's astonishing journey beyond the conventional limits of the imagination first appeared in 1895. It won him immediate recognition, and has been regarded ever since as one of the great masterpieces in the literature of science fiction.
