Yes, Wells. I had just read From Earth to the Moon by Verne and got the titles mixed up. The Wells book is a goofy (by modern standards anyway) lovely story of an inventor of an antigravity substance that creates a sphere coated in the stuff and manages to get himself to the moon to meet up with the subterranean moon dwellers - hence first men IN the moon. I've read it maybe 20+ times. I finally gave my old worn out paperback to a grand nephew who appreciates books - he was delighted with it.
