Technically what I purchased wasn't public-domain. It was a new version of
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea with a better translation and content added back in that was previously edited out.

Quote:
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. In addition, there are nearly two dozen illustrations created especially for this edition by Ron Miller, cutaway views and schematics of the Nautilus, maps, details of Verne's diving suits and many other special features.
