A gorgeous edition of Jules Verne's landmark of science fiction and wonder, featuring full-colour art by Milo Winter. When Professor Pierre Aronnax and harpoonist Ned Land join an expedition to hunt a fierce 'whale' that has been sinking ships, they end up as captives of Captain Nemo, who prowls the sea in his magnificent submarine, the Nautilus. There, they discover a magnificent, mysterious, and sometimes dangerous underwater world.
Jules Vernes (1828 - 1905) was a French novelist, poet and playwright, best known for his adventure novels and his influence on the literary genre of science fiction.
