Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from From the Clouds to the Mountains: Comprising Narratives of Strange Adventures by Air, Land, and Water This new volume by Jules Verne is made up of tales written by him at very different dates. "Dr. Ox" is quite recent, having been suggested to the author of "Strange Journeys" by a most interesting experiment made in Paris a few years since; but the other stories, entitled "Master Zachary," "A Winter in the Ice-Fields," and "A Drama in Mid-Air," were written more than twenty years ago, and are consequently anterior to the series of works which have so justly made the name of Jules Verne famous. We thought it only right to include these stories in a complete edition of Verne´s works, as they assuredly reflect no discredit on him. In them the reader may discover, may foresee, the germs of more important works, such as "Five Weeks in a Balloon," "Captain Hatteras," and "The Fur Country," which have been so successful. They are interesting as being the only collection of short stories ever published by Verne, and the only one of his works which has never previously been translated. A story which has nothing fictitious in it, under the title of "The Fortieth French Ascent of Mont Blanc," concludes the book. The story and the ascent were made by M.Paul Verne, brother of M.Jules Verne About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
