The story follows the Baltimore Gun Club, a group of weapons enthusiasts in the aftermath of the American Civil War, as they embark on an ambitious project: the construction of an enormous Columbiad cannon with the goal of launching three individuals – the Gun Club's president, his Philadelphian armor-making rival, and a French poet – into a projectile bound for the moon. Verne's meticulous calculations and analysis of the flight's potential outcomes are meticulously woven throughout the narrative, showcasing his visionary scientific mind.
Remarkably, Verne's vision was realized a century later when astronauts successfully landed on the moon, solidifying his status as a true pioneer of science fiction. This edition, with its striking illustrations and unabridged text, allows readers to fully immerse themselves in Verne's timeless tale of adventure and scientific exploration.
