The Adventures of a Special Correspondent Among the Various Races and Countries of Central Asia : Being the Exploits and Experiences of Claudius Bombarnac of "The Twentieth Century" - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Jules Verne (1828-1905) is one of the most recognizable names in Western literature, coming to be known as one of the Fathers of Science-Fiction. Although he studied to be a lawyer and held stock trading jobs, he quickly learned that he had a knack for weaving adventurous stories of travels and expeditions. It didn’t hurt that one of his teachers may have been inventor Brutus de Villeroi, who created the first submarine for the U.S. Navy. Verne wrote about air travel and space travel 50 years before either was possible.
