Featured in Ron Miller’s “The Conquest of Space Book Series.” This special edition of Jules Verne's classic novel corrects more than 3000 errors in the original 1872 English translation and replaces the 23% of text that had been expurgated by the original translator for political, ideological and other reasons. |
Oh, goody, almost a third more of that incredible tedium!
Seriously, sounds like a must for the Verne fans.
