Day 1 - Tuesday (1 June 1897)
Today, we meet the first of the characters through whose eyes and words we will experience the Martian invasion including:
- Antoinette Louise Clark (Toni to her friends) a young medical student – one of the first of her era – who is heavily influenced by Grace Harwood Stewart, one of the first female doctors, and Millicent Fawcett, a noted suffragist
- Harry Harbord Morant (aka 'Breaker' Morant), the maverick South Australia soldier who, as a result of his actions during the war, earned the personal enmity of Field Marshal Wolseley (Photograph shown)
- and of course Herbert George Wells, the socialist and author who did so much to shape our understanding of the war.
