Publisher's Synopsis
This [1877 Ward Lock] edition includes both From the Earth to the Moon and 'Round the Moon, combined into one volume and without illustrations. A fully illustrated edition can be found here. The Moon-Voyage is an amazing work of science-fiction by Jules Verne. The author has picturesquely depicted the efforts of the three astronomers of the American Gun club. Their goal of landing on the moon seemed far-fetched and the mockery of those around them fuelled their ambition. Truly astounding!
