In this pioneering 1906 work of futurology, the prophetic novelist set out to predict what the next thirty years held for America. Wells, an advocate of socialism, asked whether American capitalism had taken individualism and self-sufficiency to an extreme. He exemplifies his ideas through discussing New York City, Washington, wealth, labor, immigration, and race.
