Robur the Conqueror

They laughed at his ideas of heavier-than-air flying machines. But he had the last laugh with the Albatross--the most incredible flying machine ever built. Lord of the skies, Robur became the would-be conqueror of the world! A fascinating companion to 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Robur the Conqueror explores many of the same themes. The Wildside Press edition contains a newly revised version of the first English-language translation. (Revisions by Dainis Bisenieks and John Gregory Betancourt.)
