- Early reviews: N-Y Tribune -12-03; Chi. Tribune -12-16 p13, "Mr. Wells' Latest Conceits", primarily on the two "A Story" novellas.
- HathiTrust Digital Library provides full view of one copy, evidently without the original cover (plain maroon cloth): -- title page -- narrative, p1-358; no back matter Both novella titles "A Story ..." are displayed as headings without page numbers in the Contest list, and their component stories (5 each) as titles with page numbers. (Both were originally published in magazines as 5-story series.)
