This film was produced in collaboration with popular
science journalist and science fiction author Garrett P. Serviss to accompany
his book on the same topic.
Serviss was the author of Edison's Conquest of Mars (1898),
written on commission from The Boston
Post as a sequel to "Fighters from Mars", an un-authorized and
heavily altered version of H. G. Wells’ War of the Worlds.
