A very good copy of this rare borderline science-fiction title, notably written by one of the few woman authors writing in this genre in the 19th century. The intriguing flying machine depicted on the cover is after a design by the author, presumably inspired by her ‘spirit guide’ Carl De L’Ester. The title-page refers to another of the author’s works relating to the Ento civilisation on Mars, Decimon Huydas: A Romance of Mars, but this was only seemingly first published after Journeys to the Planet Mars, in 1906, two years after the author had died.
