London, R. Grant & Son, 1913. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A very good copy. "...an interstellar civilisation of celestials which look after and guide the inhabitants of the planets. An expeditionary army of occupation of Earth by the celestials (to relieve that already there) is being assembled on the planet Eretha, around Sirius, which is spiritually in advance of Earth. The first half of the book deals with that world and the conflicts brought on by the neighboring, warlike, planet Sardonics. Some science fiction elements are introduced, and the book, although mainly allegorical, is an early contribution to the development of the galactic empire concept predominant in modern science fiction." [Locke, Spectrum I, p127]. No jacket, rubbing to the cloth and some tanning to the spine. A few spots of foxing. [11557, Hyraxia Books].
