I think it was Ray Bradbury that wrote the best chaos butterfly story. The time travelers leave a nice culture to go to the age of dinos. When they get there they have to stay on a path that is safe. One member gets scared and leaves the path and squishes an insect. When they come back, the culture is fascist. Curse you chaos butterfly!!
I’ve just finished reading Stephen King’s novel, 11-22-63. As Percival Dunwoody has learned, time travel, especially with the intent to change major events in history, is a very dangerous thing.

Kill nobody. Just use your time machine to render Hitler’s father impotent.

I’ll bet Hitler was born as a consequence of this idiot time traveller meddling with the past, in the first place.

I rather liked “The Men Who Murdered Mohammed” by Alfred Bester and “The Brooklyn Project” by William Tenn.

Percival could have just killed Hitler in 1909, when he (Hitler) was a struggling painter. Nobody would notice one starving art student more or less…

Tomorrow, we learn Percival was responsible for the Permian Extinction …
