Based on the true story of Alexander Selkirk, who survived
alone for almost five years on an uninhabited island off the coast
of Chile, "The Mysterious Island" is considered by many to be Jules
Verne's masterpiece. "Wide-eyed mid-nineteenth-century humanistic
optimism in a breezy, blissfully readable translation by Stump"
("Kirkus Reviews"), here is the enthralling tale of five men and a
dog who land in a balloon on a faraway, fantastic island of
bewildering goings-on and their struggle to survive as they uncover
the island's secret.
