A Floating City

Description

Volume 8 of 54 of Jules Verne's "Extraordinary Voyages", first printed in 1871. The "Great Eastern" is one of the largest ships ever constructed. Often described as being mistaken for an island, this enormous ship is a passenger liner from England to the United States. With a size and population rivaling that of entire counties in France, the "Great Eastern" is home to many problems that one would find in a similarly sized city. A classic tale of travel and romance, Jules Verne writes of a journey on this massive floating metropolis. This particular edition is reproduced from English-edition public works, and is presented simply with an emphasis on straightforward presentation, attractiveness and continuity of appearance, with each title in the "Extraordinary Voyages" sporting a journal-style brown cover accompanied by a cover illustration and quote from the text on the back cover.
