1867 Jules Verne 1ed Hetzel Five Weeks in Balloon Journey Center of Earth 2in1



“Reality provides us with facts so romantic that imagination itself could add nothing to them.”

― Jules Verne



Jules Vernes adventure novels are some of the most popular and famous works of literature of all time. Known mostly for his works of science fiction, Voyages Extraordinaires was Vernes largest collection of fantasy novels and stories. Around the World in 80 Days perhaps Vernes most famous work of all was developed almost directly from Vernes early work entitled Five Weeks in a Balloon – the work that first brought Verne his popularity.



Five Weeks gives glimpses of what it would be like to explore in Africa, which was a highly foreign concept to European explorers at the time.



This 1867 Hetzel edition is issued here along with the famed Journey to the Center of the Earth. This story is one of the most famous works of science fiction every to be written. It follows the story of explorers entering an Icelandic volcano encountering prehistoric animals and incredible hazards.
