Through Other Eyes

by R. A. Lafferty

Although the story is not about time travel, the characters do spend the first couple of pages reminiscing about their disappointing experiences with a time machine.
— Fred Galvin
“And watching the great Pythagorous at work.”
“And the three days that he spent on that little surveying problem. How one longed to hand him a slide-rule through the barrier and explain its working.”

The Six Fingers of Time

by R. A. Lafferty

The story does not involve time travel, but it does have speeded-up time as in “The New Accelerator” by H. G. Wells.
— Fred Galvin
I awoke this morning to some very puzzling incidents. It seemed that time itself had stopped, or that the whole world had gone into super-slow motion.

“The Six Fingers of Time” by R. A. Lafferty, If, September 1960.

Past Master

by R. A. Lafferty

Thomas More is brought from the 16th century to the 26th in a time machine to save the world.
— Fred Galvin
We are trying to find a new sort of leader who can slow, even reverse, the break-up, Paul. We’ve selected a man from the Earth Past, Thomas More. We will present him to the people only as the Thomas, or perhaps, to be more fanciful, as the Past Master. You know of him?
