The Triumphs of a Taxidermist - Herbert George Wells

Who would have known that \"the father of Science Fiction\" also wrote satire about stuffed animals? H.G. Wells\' short story \'The Triumphs of a Taxidermist\' was first published anonymously in 1894 and reprinted in \'The Stolen Bacillus and Other Incidents\' a year later. \'The Triumphs of a Taxidermist\' sees the character Bellows visit a friend, the titular Taxidermist, who enthusiastically recounts tales of forgery, crime, and far-fetched claims to fame from his career in this humorous and satirical look at English culture.
