After flying in a great storm for several days, the group crash-lands on a cliff-bound, volcanic, unknown island, which they name it "Lincoln Island" in honor of Abraham Lincoln. With the knowledge of the brilliant engineer, the five are able to sustain themselves on the island, producing fire, pottery, bricks, nitroglycerin, iron, an electric telegraph, a cave home inside a stony cliff called "Granite House", and even a seaworthy ship, which they name the "Bonadventure".Chapters 62Words: 194,000This book is great for schools, teachers and students or for the casual reader, and makes a wonderful addition to any classic literary libraryABOUT US:At Pure Snow Publishing we have taken the time and care into formatting this book to make it the best possible reading experience.
