[Gutenberg 9618] • The Field of Ice / Part II of the Adventures of Captain Hatteras

Jules Verne was a prolific author, writing 54 novels. He is the second most translated author (Agatha Christie being the first) and is the Father of Science Fiction. The novels have enduring appeal and even though some of the science seems dated the stories are so enthralling that it does not matter. In this volume of his early works are all his novels between 1864 and 1870: A Journey to the Center of the Earth, From the Earth to the Moon, Round the Moon, The English at the North Pole, The Field of Ice (The Adventures of Captain Hatteras Parts I and II), In Search of the Castaways (or The Children of Captain Grant), and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
