From the Earth to the Moon
Details: Unabridged
Category: Fiction, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Classics
Keywords: space travel, Earth, Moon
Author: Jules Verne
Publisher: Jimcin Recordings
Length: 3 hours and 58 min.

Description
The American Civil War had ended, and the members of the American Gun Club tried to think of something else to interest them. At last they came up with the extraordinary idea of building the greatest cannon the world had ever seen and using it to launch a man-made "bullet" to the moon! When From the Earth to the Moon was published in 1865, it was regarded as pure fantasy. Who could imagine a rocket that would carry men and animals through space? Today, like so many of Jules Verne's prophecies, space travel is a reality.
