About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 41 full-page plates by Johan Christian Dahl, Caspar David Friedrich and J. M. W. Turner. The sequel to the moon gun - the projectile misses its target, circles the moon and has to get home. Verne worked out the free-fall, the atmosphere problem and the splashdown, and the passengers spend the voyage arguing about lunar geography. This edition adds a gallery of 41 plates, among them moonlit coastlines and harbours by Friedrich, Redon, Pether and Constable, alongside 19 restored and coloured illustrations and Edward Roth's translation.
