In the Fourth Year was widely read. The essays it contains led Walter Lippmann (who had edited the pieces for publication in The New Republic) to seek out Wells when he visited England in August 1918, and their meetings influenced the US State Dept. document interpreting President Wilson's Fourteen Points address. The end of the war came too quickly, however, for Wells's notion of a democratically elected Peace Conference to have any chance of realisation.A shortened version of the book was published by the League of Free Nations Association.
