1887 Jules Verne Mysterious Island Shipwrecks Extraordinary Voyages
“It is a great misfortune to be alone, my friends; and it must be believed that solitude can quickly destroy reason.”
― Jules Verne, The Mysterious Island
Jules Vernes adventure novels are some of the most popular and famous works of literature of all time. “Mysterious Island”, originally published in 1874, is an adventure novel that was significantly influenced by Robinson Crusoe and other shipwreck adventures. Part of the famed Extraordinary Voyages, this novel follows the story and adventures of American Civil War prisoners of war, who escaped on a balloon to an uncharted island in the South Pacific. This book is iconic as being a melding of another Verne novel, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
