A Tour of the Moon

A Tour of the Moon was originally published in 1865 as the sequel to Verne's better known A Trip from the Earth to the Moon. As to the discoveries made by the explorers, it is noteworthy that here Verne has again restrained himself, instead of plunging blindly into inventions as a less conscientious romancer might easily have done. His picture of the moon is hard and cold, confined to just what astronomers actually know or closely surmise. He brings the views and visions of the scientist into a field usually abandoned to the fooleries of extravaganza.
