A science fiction work, following Captain Nemo and his submarine, the Nautilus, as he and his shipmates encounter numerous remarkable sights on their undersea voyage.

Jules Verne (1828-1905) was a French novelist best known for his thrilling adventure series, 'Voyages Extraordinaires'. This included works such as 'Journey to the Center of the Earth', 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas', 'Around the World in Eighty Days', 'Around the Moon', 'The Mysterious Island', and 'The Vanished Diamond'.

In a stunning cartonnage binding by Engel, with one elephant to the top of the binding. 

In the original French language.

Undated; dated from copies held on Jisc.

This work was originally serialised in Magasin d'Éducation.

With illustrations by Alphonse de Neuville and Edouard Riou, engraved by Hildibrand. With vignettes throughout the text. 

A smart later reprint of this extremely popular work.

Condition

In the publisher's original full cloth binding. Externally generally smart; with some rubbing to the gilt cover and spine, which is a little bumped to the head and tail, as well as to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are a touch age-toned at the edges, but are otherwise generally bright and clean.
