This combined volume brings together Jules Verne’s two linked lunar adventure novels: From the Earth to the Moon (1865) and its sequel Round the Moon (1870). Together they follow the Baltimore Gun Club’s audacious project to fire a manned projectile to the moon, with scientific calculations remarkably close to those NASA would employ a century later, including a launch site in Florida and a splashdown at sea.
Verne’s combination of scientific rigor, satirical wit, and genuine suspense makes these books enduring classics of science fiction. Download this public-domain edition as a free EPUB.
