Description
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. Scientist Pierre Aronnax and his colleagues embark on an expedition to find a strange sea monster, only to be captured by the infamous Captain Nemo and taken aboard his submarine, the Nautilus. As they travel the world's oceans, they become embroiled in adventures and events that challenge their perceptions of the world. Visionary in its outlook, this science fiction masterpiece by Jules Verne is a legendary tale of exploration and discovery.
