This Excellent Collection brings together Jules Verne's longer, major books and a fine selection of shorter pieces and Science-Fiction Books. These Books created and collected in Jules Verne's Most important Works illuminate the life and work of one of the most individual writers of the XX century - a man who elevated political writing to an art. Jules Verne (1828Ŕ1905) was a French writer. He was one of the first authors to write science fiction. Some of his books include Journey To The Centre Of The Earth (1864), From the Earth to the Moon (1865), Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870), and Around the World in Eighty Days (1873). Jules Verne has earned a place in the history of literature as one of the most important writers of adventure novels of recent history. But his novels contain more than just entertainment. Their pages contain hidden scientific data, descriptions of inventions and, above all, a love of technological innovations and the progress of humanity. From his perspective as a nineteenth-century man, Verne shocked the world will tales of gadgets and vehicles that, years later, would eventually take shape outside fiction, just as Isaac Asimov did years later. His influence has been such that it has come to serve as an inspiration to an entire cultural and aesthetic movement. This Collection included: 1. Five Weeks in a Balloon 2.
