dc.description.abstract | This volume from Verne describes the adventures of Robur - a wannabe conqueror of the world and a great inventor - and Albatross, his incredible heavier-than-air flying machine. Verne develops the book from the concepts of air-travel that was floating around his time – he recognizes the limitations that balloons had as a travel medium – and predicts the way in which future air transportation was going to be with his development of the flying machine ‘Albatross’. Verne makes ‘Albatross’ a propeller driven machine powered by electricity and airs his views at the future of balloon travel through the voice of his protagonist ‘Robur’. | en_US |
