From the Publisher, we find the following quotes: "Science, my boy, is made up of mistakes, but they are mistakes which it is useful to make, because they lead little by little to the truth." "I dream with my eyes open." "And whichsoever way thou goest, may fortune follow." Jules Verne's 19th-century action classic has the added appeal of a psychological quest, in which the journey is as significant as the destination.
An adventurous geology professor chances upon a manuscript in which a sixteenth-century explorer claims to have found a route to the earth's core. He mounts an expedition that descends into a subterranean world of luminous rocks, antediluvian forests, and fantastic marine life — a living past that holds the secrets to the origins of human existence. Originally published in 1864, Jules Verne's classic remains critically acclaimed for its style and imaginative visions.
