G. Wells is a philosophical exploration written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a non-fiction account where Wells reflects on the future of the United States and its society, emphasizing the themes of human progress and the nature of national identity amid industrial growth. With an analytical lens, he questions what America will become in the coming decades, posing fundamental questions about the nation’s values, aims, and the essence of its citizenry. The opening of the book presents Wells grappling with his curiosity about America as he prepares to embark on his journey across the Atlantic. He addresses the challenges and misunderstandings stemming from his status as a foreigner and the peculiar inquiries he must answer to gain entry into the U.S. His "prophetic habit of mind" leads him to contemplate the future of the nation rather than merely its present state, reflecting on the importance of will and purpose in determining the trajectory of societies. This philosophical groundwork sets the stage for Wells's larger examination of various aspects of American life, as he is determined to uncover the underlying realities shaping the nation’s cultural and economic landscape.
