The Mysterious Island by Jules Verne
The Mysterious Island by Jules Verne
Translated by W.H.G. Kingston (1814-1880)
A story of castaways, similar to Robinson Crusoe and The Swiss Family Robinson, this book details the escape from Civil War-era Richmond, Virginia, of five Northern men who dared to go aloft in a balloon in the midst of a hurricane. Deposited on a lonely island in the Pacific, they make do with Yankee ingenuity where Chance has left them nothing. (Summary by Mark)
