Flatland
Didn't he write this book? Anyone know anything about the First Edition of it? 1884 is the year of his Second and Revised Edition. --70.23.237.75 (talk) 15:17, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Health issues
Can anybody confirm that Abbott suffered from dimensia in his final years? Cgingold (talk) 07:13, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

 * He IS vindicated. His (FICTIONAL) NOVEL is a classic. If what we think of as the universe is a simulation of some kind, Edwin Abbott Abbott could nver know, and not just because he's dead. TheScotch (talk) 01:19, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
