CROMIE, Robert. - The Next Crusade. London, Hutchinson 1896. Octavo publisher's illustrated cloth blocked in red, yellow, blue, black, silver and gilt. Edges spotted but a rather good bright copy. ¶ First edition. A scarce sci-fi thriller describing the "coming struggle" between England and Russia by the writer who didn't live long enough to twice accuse H.G. Wells of plagiarism. He accused Wells of snaffling his space ship for 'First Men on the Moon' but died before Wells' use of an atom bomb in 1914.
