The Green Ray

Description

Volume 23 of 54 of Jules Verne's "Extraordinary Voyages", first printed in 1883. Sam and Sid are each uncle to Miss Campbell, whom they two brothers have designs to see happily married. Miss Campbell, however, refuses to get married-not until she witnesses a natural phenomenon known as the 'Green Ray'. Accompanied by their housekeeper, the three set out to witness this phenomenon in this classic work by Jules Verne, in every right a 19th century romantic comedy. 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.
