Volume 9 of 54 of Jules Verne's "Extraordinary Voyages", first printed in 1872. In a joint scientific endeavor between the English and Russian governments, six men embark on an 18th-month journey through the wilds of South Africa.

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.
