I can't guarantee that there hasn't been more than one. But your
description fits The Time Ships, Stephen Baxter's 1995 novel. This
science fiction novel is a sequel to The Time Machine, and was
authorised by the Wells estate as part of the centenary celebrations
for the original novel.

In the novel, Wells' original time traveller returns to the future,
finding a different world from the one in his original journey.
Further journeys lead him to discover more worlds. Several of these
could fairly be described as 'devastated'.
