Description

Hand-corrected proof by H. G. Wells for his article "The Great Community," a book review of The Great Society: A Psychological Analysis by Graham Wallas, which was published in The Nation on July 11, 1914. The proof, one page, 5.5 x 24.5, contains numerous corrections in ink and pencil, with approximately 60 words in Wells's own hand, with the largest portion appearing at the bottom: "There could be no better demonstration of just how the organized thought of Mr. Wallas falls short of the conception." Signed in the upper border in black ink by Wells. In fine condition, with multiple horizontal folds.
