This is a good short by Ray Bradbury. Although it may be in more than one volume, the one I read it in is The Golden Apples of the Sun. This is also the origins of the Butterfly Effect, where something altered in the past can have untold ramifications on future events. This was even turned into a 2005 movie. An enjoyable and thought provoking read.
