| Introduction | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Who would ever think that something as insignificant as a butterfly could change the course of history? In Ray Bradbury's short story "A Sound of Thunder," the death of a single insect affects millions of years of history. If time travel were a possibility, where in time would you go? Who would you meet? What would you wear or eat? And if you did happen to change something, how would history be altered? |
