Don't know if it's true but the blurb on amazon says this about him.

Wells evidently grew less sympathetic to [the Fabians] aims as time went on, and published a version of the plans for public consumption in this and other books. Needless to say, the cabal bent on world domination were displeased with Wells' cavalier candor (perhaps they misjudged him all along), and destroyed nearly all such books.
