Publisher Description: Originally published in the late 1800s, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea has captivated readers for nearly two centuries. This edition, enhanced with lavish full-color illustrations by artist Arkady Roytman, is the premier edition of this time-honored classic. The story follows Professor Aronnax, his faithful servant, Conseil, and the Canadian harpooner, Ned Land, and dangerous mission to rid the seas of a terrifying monster that lurks in the depths of the sea. However, the "monster" turns out to be a giant submarine, commanded by the mysterious Captain Nemo, by whom they are soon held captive. So begins not only one of the great adventure classics by Jules Verne, but also a truly fantastic voyage from the lost city of Atlantis to the South Pole. |
