Hollywood Presents Jules Verne: The Father of Science Fiction on Screen (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780813161129)

Even for those who have never read Jules Verne (1828-1905), the author's very name conjures visions of the submarine in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, the epic race in Around the World in Eighty Days, the spacecraft in From the Earth to the Moon, and the daring descent in Journey to the Center of the Earth. One of the most widely translated authors of all time, Verne has inspired filmmakers since the early silent period and continues to fascinate audiences more than one hundred years aft
