'The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides.'

As they travel the world's oceans, they become embroiled in adventures and events beyond their wildest dreams. Visionary in its outlook, Vern's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is a legendary science fiction masterpiece.

We're still catching up with the capabilities of the Nautilus. I can't believe how far ahead he was thinking. We are just now developing those taser bullet guns.

The book itself I loved! However, I noticed many spelling mistakes. This didn't affect my read it's just an observation. :-) next onto journey to the centre of the earth! Loving Jules Verne.

I enjoyed this book and it's wild story the only things I didn't like was the constant classifications of marine animals. It becomes a little dull.
