Meridiana: Adventures of Three Englishmen and Three Russians in South Africa. Translated from the French.

"This capital translation of M. Verne's last wild and amusing story is, like all those by the same author, delightfully extravagant, and full of entertaining improbabilities. . . . The illustrations are not the least amusing part of M. Verne's book, and certainly the reader of 'Meridiana' will not fail to have many a hearty laugh over it."
—Morning Post.

"There is real merit here in both the narrative and the woodcuts."
— North British Daily Mail.

"Eminently readable."
—Daily News.

"One of the most interesting books of the season. . . . Ably translated "
—Graphic.

"Jules Verne, in 'Meridiana,' makes the account of the scientific proceedings as interesting as the hunting and exploring adventures, which is saying a good deal."
— Athetusum.
