This is a cheaply printed early (circa 1890) reprint of Jules Verne's classic adventure story.Blind stamped maroon boards with Author's name on front cover with victorian designs. Title on gilt background blind stamped on spine. Boards in good condition. Please not publishing error on Title page regarding publishers line and location. (see photo) pages are somewhat brittle with age, and some early pages have been repaired with archival tape. Sewn binding still intact. No missing pages. Frontispiece is an engraved print opposite the title page.This novel, first published in 1863, was an instant hit because of public interest in fanciful tales of African exploration, which was at it height.

New York: Worthington Co.. 1889. Octavo, original red cloth boards decorated in black, pp 354. Previous owner's name stamp front endpaper. Boards heavily rubbed with some fading, pages very toned as usual, some smudging to pages, good condition. Fantastical novel of exploration of Africa. From the 'Franklin Edition; Publisher's Note: the book is "in a measure, a satire on modern books of African travel. So far as the geography, the inhabitants, the animals, and the features of the countries the travelers pass over are described, it is entirely accurate. It gives, in some particulars, a survey of nearly the whole field of African discovery. The mode of locomotion is, of course, purely imaginary, and the incidents and adventures fictitious." Cloth Boards.
