The Stolen Bacillus and Other Incidents is a collection of fifteen fantasy and science fiction short stories written by the English author H. G. Wells between 1893 and 1895. It was first published by Methuen & Co. in 1895 and was Wells’s first book of short stories. All of the stories had first been published in various weekly and monthly periodicals. (source: Wikipedia)
