Kurzbeschreibung
Written almost a century before the daring flights of the astronauts, Jules Verne’s prophetic novel of man’s race to the stars is a classic adventure tale enlivened by broad satire and scientific acumen.
When the members of the elite Baltimore Gun Club find themselves lacking any urgent assignments at the close of the Civil War, their president, Impey Barbicane, proposes that they build a gun big enough to launch a rocket to the moon. But when Barbicane’s adversary places a huge wager that the project will fail and a daring volunteer elevates the mission to a “manned” flight, one man’s dream turns into an international space race.
A story of rip-roaring action, humor, and wild imagination, From the Earth to the Moon is as uncanny in its accuracy and as filled with authentic detail and startling immediacy as Verne’s timeless masterpieces 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in Eighty Days.

Format:Taschenbuch
Although there are many technical words concerning scientific field, I enjoyed reading the story. I can not believe it was written over 100 years ago. The unique idea of sending a projectile to the moon sounds strange, but whoever else but Jules Verne would have thought so? Just like Walt Disney Production made a motion picture of Verne's 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA in 1954, I strongly hope that they will make it into a major motion picture in the year 2005, commemorating the CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY of his death.
Format:Taschenbuch
I would recommend this book for older people who could understand all those strange and odd calculations that Jules Verne made. The book is very hard to understand at some times but it can, however, be a little exciting. I would recommend for people to read the unabridged version last and the edited version first.
Format:Taschenbuch
I feel that this book,will bring out the science and knowledge in all of us.For those who are taking Science in high school or college should read this book,for any social background for their homework studies.
