The book we're reading this month is aimed at young adult readers, but is one that
all SF fans can enjoy:
Time Machines: The Greatest Time Travel Stories Ever Written, edited by Bill Adler,
Jr.

Here's the NLS synopsis:
Anthology of twenty-two time travel short stories. Personal favorites of the editor
ranging from Edgar Allan Poe's "Three Sundays in a Week" written in 1850 to Derryl
Murphy's "What Goes Around" from 1997.
Here's a somewhat longer description from Amazon's page:
From School Library Journal
YA-Even readers who generally avoid science fiction can find something enjoyable
in this anthology. The 22 stories represent a wide range of authors and time periods.
Edgar Allan Poe, Rudyard Kipling, Isaac Asimov, Rod Serling, Ray Bradbury, Connie
Willis, and Robert Sawyer are among the writers included. The quality of the stories
is exceptional; each tale is a thought-provoking experience. From the transportation
of Sherlock Holmes to the 21st century to solve an enigma, to a time traveler who
refuses to die, to a graduate history student doing his practicum in World War II
London, all of the stories are readable, enjoyable, and stimulating. The cover claims
that a tale by H. G. Wells is included (it is not). Despite this error, the book
is highly recommended for young adults.
