The narrative described a British expedition to the North Pole led by Captain John Hatteras that occurred in 1861. Despite the crew's mutiny costing their ship its life, Hatteras and a few other men continue the journey. He finds the wreckage of a ship from the previous American mission along the beach of the island known as ""New America.""Doctor Clawbonny remembers the design for the actual Ice palace, which was built entirely out of ice in Russia in 1740 to create a snow house where they were supposed to spend the winter. The travelers survive their winter on the island mostly because of Doctor Clawbonny's inventiveness.The water loses its ice after winter is over. The travelers construct a boat from the wreck and move in the direction of the pole. They find an island with an active volcano here and give it the name Hatteras. The gang locates a fjord with difficulty and makes landfall. They arrive at the volcano's mouth after three hours of climbing. Hatteras leaps into the crater where the pole is located precisely. The final sentence, ""Captain Hatteras ceaselessly marches northward,"" makes this clear.

He was regularly met with Sarah's snobbish indifference, but he didn't care since he saw her as a commodity. In order to conduct a covert interview with Samuel, the mestizo accompanied him to the Chorillos Baths. Don Vegal, who was grieving the loss of his daughter Sarah, wandered aimlessly around Lima's streets. The large number of Indians, Zambos, and Chios that were walking the streets struck him as odd. These males, who often participated actively in the Amanca's sports, were now moving silently and with a single focus. Don Vegal had stopped considering Sarah in favour of Martin Paz.Taking the package, Gideon Spilett cracked it open. He brought a couple of the approximately 200 grains of a white powder it contained to his lips. Herbert has to be given this powder right away. After leaving Dakkar Grotto, Cyrus Harding and his friends took the route leading to the corral.All that was left of Granite House was a lone boulder that was thirty feet long by twenty feet wide and was only 10 feet from the river. No one from the ancient Lincoln Island colony was missing since they had promised to always live together. Neb was with his master, Ayrton was there willing to die for everyone, and Pencroft was more of a farmer than a sailor.

After being welcomed into Samuel's home, André Certa regained consciousness and shook the elderly Jew's hand. Martin Paz very certainly would have drowned in the Rimac, but he managed to stop the stream with forceful strokes. He repeatedly dove before attempting to land and hiding behind a dense bush. Fully healed and certain of Martin Paz's passing, André Certa pushed for his marriage. He couldn't wait to flaunt the young, gorgeous Jewess around Lima's streets.He was regularly met with Sarah's snobbish indifference, but he didn't care since he saw her as a commodity.

Jules Verne wrote the book Eight Hundred Leagues on the Amazon, which was first released in 1881. It was also released under the title The Giant Raft. A ranch owner named Joam Garral, who lives close to the Peruvian-Brazilian border on the Amazon River, is forced to travel downstream as his history catches up with him in this adventure novel. The majority of the book takes place aboard a sizable jangada, a Brazilian timber raft that Garral and his family use to float to Belém, which is located at the river's mouth. The voyage, scenery, and many other features are detailed in great depth. In the plot, Joam Garral approves his daughter's request to visit Belém, where she intends to wed Manuel Valdez in front of Manuel's ailing mother. The Garrels use a massive timber raft to navigate the Amazon River. Joam wants to clear his name in Belém since he is still wanted in Brazil for a crime he did not commit. Absolute evidence of Joam's innocence is provided to him by the rogue Torres, but Joam finds it incomprehensible that Torres would demand to wed Joam's daughter in exchange for this information. An encrypted letter contains the evidence that will clear Garral.

Jules Verne wrote The Courier of the Czar in 1876, according to Michael Strogoff. It is regarded as one of Verne's best books by critic Leonard S. Davidow. Jules Verne hasn't written a greater book than this, according to Davidow, and it is rightfully regarded as one of the most exciting stories ever written. It is not science fiction, in contrast to several of Verne's other books, but rather uses a scientific phenomenon as a plot element. A play based on the book was later created by Verne and Adolphe d'Ennery. The play's incidental music was composed by Franz von Suppé in 1893 and Alexandre Artus in 1880. The book has had numerous adaptations for movies, television shows, and cartoons. Michael Strogoff, a native of Omsk, age 30, serves as a messenger for Tsar Alexander II of Russia. Strogoff is dispatched to Irkutsk to inform the governor of the treacherous former colonel Ivan Ogareff, who was once degraded and exiled by this Tsar brother, who is now a traitor. Now that he has the governor's trust, he plans to betray both of them and Irkutsk to the Tartar hordes in order to exact revenge.

A fascinating travel adventure may be found in Jules Verne's The Adventures of a Special Correspondent. Claudius Bombarnac, a reporter tasked with travelling from a port on the Caspian to China through the Transasiatic Railways, serves as the protagonist of the novel.A fascinating cast of individuals, including one who is attempting to break the round-the-world record and another who is a stowaway, go with him on this expedition. In order for his novel to be more than simply a dry travelogue, Claudius hopes that one of them will end up becoming the protagonist. When a special car, guarded by soldiers, is added to the train and is claimed to be transporting the remains of a famous Mandarin, he is not dismayed. The huge Mandarin is really a sizable shipment that is being sent back to China from Persia. Unfortunately, the train must pass through a significant portion of China that is under the corrupt rule of robber-chiefs. Claudius locates his hero before the voyage is over.

One of Jules Verne's final books, The Master of the World, which was released in 1904, is a science fiction classic. The novel was written as Verne's health was deteriorating. Master of the World is a "dark novel," full of dread and anxiety about the emergence of totalitarianism and tyrants like the book's antagonist, Robur. The plot of the book takes place in the summer of 1903 when things travel so quickly they are essentially invisible triggering a number of mysterious occurrences around the Eastern United States. John Strock, the first-person narrator, who works as the "Head Inspector in the Federal Police Department" in Washington, DC, goes on an investigation trip to the North Carolina Blue Ridge Mountains. The Terror is a brand-new device that Robur has perfected. It is a ten-meter-long vehicle that may be used as a submarine, speedboat, car, or airplane. It can fly at more than 200 mph and move at the (then) unheard-of speed of 150 mph on land. Strock attempts to apprehend the Terror but finds himself taken prisoner. To escape his pursuers, Robur pilots the unusual vessel toward the Caribbean and into a rainstorm. Lightning strikes the Terror, which disintegrates and crashes into the water.

Paff! ... Paff!Zwei Pistolenschüsse knallten zu gleicher Zeit. Eine Kuh, welche eben in der Entfernung von fünfzig Schritten vorüber trabte, bekam eine Kugel in's Rückgrat ... und sie ging die Sache doch gar nichts an.Von den beiden Gegnern war keiner getroffen worden.Wer waren jene beide Herren? Niemand weiß es, und gerade hier wäre ja Gelegenheit gewesen, ihre Namen der Nachwelt zu überliefern. Es läßt sich über sie nichts weiter sagen, als daß der ältere ein Engländer, der jüngere Duellant ein Amerikaner war. Desto leichter läßt sich die Oertlichkeit bestimmen, an der jener unschuldige Wiederkäuer eben sein letztes Grasbündelchen abgeweidet hatte; diese ist nämlich am rechten Ufer des Niagara und unweit der Hängebrücke zu suchen, welche drei Meilen unterhalb der berühmten Fälle das canadische Ufer mit dem amerikanischen verbindet.Der Engländer schritt jetzt auf den Amerikaner zu.¿Ich bleibe nichtsdestoweniger dabei, daß es die Melodie von Rule Britannia war, sagte er.Nein, der Yankee Doodle!¿ versetzte der Andere.Der Streit schien auf's Neue entbrennen zu sollen, als sich einer der Zeugen ohne Zweifel im Interesse des weidenden Viehs mit den Worten einmischte:¿Nehmen wir an, es wäre der Rule Doodle und der Yankee Britannia gewesen und begeben wir uns nun zum Frühstück.¿

Ce roman a été terminé et remanié par Michel Verne, après la mort de son père Jules Verne. Un projet de loi ayant été déposé par le député Barsac, tendant à créer cinq sièges de députés dans la Sénégambie, la Haute Guinée et la partie du Soudan français située à l'ouest du Niger, et à accorder l'électorat, voire l'éligibilité, aux gens de couleur, sans distinction de race, cette proposition obtient un franc de succès. Le Ministère est invité à constituer une mission qui parcourra cette région comprise dans la boucle du Niger et qui rédigera un rapport au vu duquel la Chambre statuera ultérieurement. La mission Barsac ayant commencé son périple se heurte au cours de ses investigations à un nombre croissant de difficultés. Ils finissent par être kidnappés et transportés au moyen de machines, mi hélicoptère, mi avions dans une ville, Blackland, inconnue du reste du monde et située en plein désert...

La Maison à vapeur1 est un roman historique et d'aventures de Jules Verne, paru en 1880.HistoriqueL'¿uvre est publiée en feuilleton dans le Magasin d'éducation et de récréation du 1er décembre 1879 au 15 décembre 1880 et en librairie dès le 15 novembre 1880 chez Hetzel.Jules Verne utilise pour source l'ouvrage de Louis Rousselet, dont il reprend des passages entiers, L'Inde des Rajahs, publié dans la revue Le Tour du monde du 1er semestre 1872 au 1er semestre 1874 avant d'être édité en volume chez Hachette en 1875.Nana Sahib et son frère Bala Rao Sahib sont des personnages historiques. Tous les deux sont disparus en 1862 après la révolte des cipayes.

Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas is a classic science fiction adventure novel by French writer Jules Verne. The novel was originally serialized from March 1869 through June 1870 in Pierre-Jules Hetzel's fortnightly periodical, the Magasin d'éducation et de récréation. A deluxe octavo edition, published by Hetzel in November 1871. The book was widely acclaimed on its release and remains so; it is regarded as one of the premier adventure novels and one of Verne's greatest works, along with Around the World in Eighty Days and Journey to the Center of the Earth. Its depiction of Captain Nemo's underwater ship, the Nautilus, is regarded as ahead of its time, since it accurately describes many features of today's submarines, which in the 1860s were comparatively primitive vessels.

Le Testament d'un excentrique est un roman de Jules Verne, paru en 1899.Il relate une gigantesque partie du jeu de l'oie à l'échelle des États-Unis (appelée l'Union à l'époque), dans laquelle chaque case correspond à un État des États-Unis.Ce livre fut écrit en 1897.
