Publisher's Synopsis
If you are a fan of Jules Verne, this is the perfect book to enjoy with a smile on your face. Written in 1865, Verne theorizes a trip to the moon via a massive Civil War cannon. Prophetic? Considering the first moon landing won't occur for another century, I would say so. The difference between this story and other Verne science fiction works is the wonderful inclusion of humor. That, combined with Verne's affinity for character creation and his savvy science mind provides us with a unique, lighthearted and action packed narrative. You're sure to have a blast. Even today, the creativity and imagination of Jules Verne inspires millions. Check out this video of how we are able to bring his vision to life in new and exciting ways. Verne's Columbiad is brought to life by Disneyland Paris's Mission 2.
