About This Novel
During the American Civil War, five northern prisoners of war, led by engineer Sirus Smith, who were trapped in the Confederate army, took advantage of a typhoon during the siege to escape in a hot air balloon. During the escape, they were blown down by a storm on a desert island in the Pacific. However, they did not despair. Instead, they united and helped each other, using everyone's wisdom and hard work. From their bare hands to making pottery, glass, windmills, telegraphs, etc., They tamed the chimpanzee Jupu and became everyone's servant. They helped the exiled criminals restore their humanity and became their loyal partners. They repelled the attacking pirates and built a prosperous and happy life with the help of mysterious people and science. It was not until the "Duncan" commanded by Captain Grant's son Robert passed by that they were rescued by the changes in the earth's crust. After returning to the United States, these "islanders" restarted the adventure stories of the business they established on the island.

This is a true science fiction novel, not bad.
very good
Set up suspense at the beginning, then narrate in a roundabout way
Your captain is actually a prince!
Unexpectedly, Captain Nemo is actually an Indian prince! When I saw Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, I thought he was a military strategist or scientist or something.
A bit like Robinson Crusoe
Not only is this book good to read, but Jules' Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is also good to read!
good book
Looks good, worth spending money to watch
This book is pretty good
? ? ? ? ? ?
Incredible "biography"
The language is vivid and resembles a portrayal of life, and the personal growth experiences are just like those experienced by the characters in the book, with ups and downs.
Comprehensive content to attract readers
