All Around the Moon Illustrated Jules Verne

Around the Moon (French: Autour de la Lune, 1869), also translated as Circling the Moon and All Around the Moon, is the sequel to Jules Verne's 1865 novel, From the Earth to the Moon. It is a science fiction tale which continues the trip to the moon that was only begun in the first novel. Later English editions sometimes combined the two under the title From the Earth to the Moon and Around It. From the Earth to the Moon and Around the Moon served as the basis for the 1902 film A Trip to the Moon.
