An Annotated Sci-Fi Classic of Submarine Exploration, Marine Biology, and Undersea Conquest

In 1866, French marine biologist Professor Pierre Aronnax, his manservant Conseil, and Canadian harpooner Ned Land join a high-seas expedition to hunt a deadly sea monster disrupting international shipping. After being thrown overboard during an attack, they are rescued by the Nautilus—an advanced, electric-powered submarine commanded by the mysterious Captain Nemo.

Held as permanent captives, Aronnax and his companions embark on a 20,000-league undersea journey across the globe, witnessing deep-sea marine biology, coral catacombs, and the ruins of Atlantis. Annotated by scholar Walter James Miller, this edition restores original passages cut from early 19th-century English translations, offering Jules Verne's definitive text.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Jules Verne's foundational science fiction masterpiece combines Victorian speculative technology with oceanographic adventure. Featuring Walter James Miller's restored text and historical commentary, this edition is essential reading for classic sci-fi collectors and maritime literature readers.
