A review by lalodragon
The War of the Worlds : Mars' Invasion of Earth, Inciting Panic and Inspiring Terror from H.G. Wells to Orson Welles and Beyond with audio cd by Alex Lubertozzi

I'm not sure if I've ever finished the book. I think I did. I'd read illustrated classics. (I hate those whitepaint hardback books, ruining the classics.)
This book began my adoration of Orson Welles, still based entirely on photos and voice (because I've never seen his films).
