Item Details

Description

1881 Jules Verne A Captain at Fifteen Dick Sand SLAVERY Africa Voyages Hetzel

â€œIf the name Dick had been given to the little orphan, it was because it was the name of the charitable passer-by who had picked him up two or three hours after his birth. As to the name Sand, it was attributed to him in remembrance of the lace where he had been found.”

â€“ Jules Verne, Dick Sand

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, this Verne novel contains no inventions or marvels, but is simply a story of moving scenes of travel and African exploration and zoology. However, the lessons of the work come in the form of the brutal and horrible stories of slavery. Dick Sand, a teenager, must take control of a ship after the captain dies; he encounters shipwrecks, slaves, and experience revenge all in this popular Verne novel. This Hetzel edition includes the â€œaux deux elephants” on the front cover.

This rare French edition is charmingly illustrated and was published by Hetzel and features the two elephants at the top corners of the front cover, indicative of the earliest Verne editions.
