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

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.
