Verne, Jules - first English Language appearance
Five Weeks in a Balloon - Every Saturday; First Verne English Appearance
Boston: Fields & Osgood 1868. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good Plus. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Boston: Fields & Osgood 1868 hardbound Volume 6 July to December 1868 of the magazine. Taves & Michaluk V001. 10.25" x 6.75" 828 pp. Ex-Tacoma Public Library; half black calf with marbled paper boards. Quite scuffed particularly at the corners and hinges. Pages are age toned some are wrinkled one page is torn but complete not a page within the Verne issue. Strongly bound. Somewhat worn see scans but still quite strong better than Good just short of very good by reason of one or two too many scuffs. Fascinating and quite rare Jules Verne English-language first/first. Just a few pages buried within this hefty collection of six months of Every Saturday: A Journal of Choice Reading - a Fields & Osgood double-column weekly issue - treat Verne's first novel Five Weeks in a Balloon. At the time the magazine editors were apparently of the opinion that Verne who was then largely unknown to the American public was describing actual events rather than fictitious ones in his tale of African adventures undertaken via the vehicle of a hot-air balloon. Here in the five pages of this first appearance see scan of the first one only certain passages of the novel occur along with a synopsis by the apparently intrigued editor who concludes with the line: "All I can say is that it was shameful of our newspapers which profess to record everything that passes to treat this important event with such utter silence." Verne is even mis-identified by the flummoxed staff who refer to him as "M. Jules Berne." For this title this piece is exceeded in English-language rarity only by its own softbound variant - i.e. the same piece not bound together in six-monthly tomes such as this which was the habit of the era which few have presumably largely perished. Taves & Michaluk at V001 note that "The London" sourcing reference for the Verne article remains unknown. See all scans. L53n <br/> <br/> Fields & Osgood hardcover

Flood and Flame: Part Two of The Golden Volcano Fitzroy Edition
Westport Connecticut: Associated Booksellers / Arco Publications 1961. First Thus. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. 0x0x0. Gross Jozef jacket. First thus. Jacket spine toned jacket lightly rubbed. 1961 Hard Cover. 190 pp. A story of the Klondike Gold Rush in the Yukon similar to the works of Jack London and Robert W. Service. Part one of The Golden Volcano first published in 1906 under the title Le Volcan d'Or. By the author of Journey to the Centre of the Earth and 20000 Leagues under the Sea. Includes a new introduction by I.O. Evans. "I.O. Evans Idrisyn Oliver Evans love of science fiction and Jules Verne led him to envisage a series of Jules Verne books where he could re-introduce to the public the many works that were not commonly known. It was the publisher Bernard Hanison a 29 year old who agreed upon a contract with I.O. Evans in 1958 for such a series. The address of the offices of Bernard Hanison was 10 Fitzroy Street and hence the name of the series Fitzroy Edition. Bernard Hanison published under his own name Bernard Hanison London and also under ARCO Publications Ltd. London. After finalizing the contract with I.O Evans Bernard in 1959 sold the companies and the works to be published to MacGibbon and Kee. It was MacGibbon and Kee who continued to publish the Fitzroy Edition under the ARCO Publications banner. Any books in the works at the time could still be published but recognition to the publishing entity Bernard Hanison had to be given. The first books in the Fitzroy Edition can be identified as such because of the Hanison markings." - Jules Verne Collecting website "The intention of this new edition of one of the greatest of imaginative writers is to make it as comprehensive as possible and to include his lesser-known as well as his most popular works. Jules Verne is universally acclaimed as the founder of modern science fiction and as the author of a number of exciting stories of travel and adventure but he also produced several historical novels and some acute studies of contemporary life. The first three books in the series are selected to illustrate several aspects of his work. A Floating City is based on his own experiences when he crossed the Atlantic in the ill-fated Great Eastern a vessel that was intended to be the greatest achievement of nineteenth-century engineering but which proved to be its greatest failure. The Begum's Fortune a remarkable work of science fiction displays its author's gift of foresight for it contains not only what is probably the first idea of an artificial satellite but a grim foreboding of the modern totalitarian state. Finally Five Weeks in a Balloon demanded inclusion for it was through this book that Verne won his success as a writer. The series is under the general editorship of I.O. Evans F.R.G.S. compiler of Jules Verne: Master of Science Fiction and for many years an admirer of Verne and a science fiction addict." - From the Publisher "In the days of science fiction the old masters are not necessarily outworn; their prescience and vitality remain something to wonder at even if their world is old-fashioned. The major works of Jules Verne have never been dropped; witness the fabulous success of Round the World in Eighty Days.The volumes in the Fitzroy Edition by I. O. Evans give in somewhat abbreviated form some of the lesser known novels which I found most entertaining. With his tremendous knowledge and industry Verne filled pages with detail which is here pruned away to give a quicker narrative." - The Guardian Associated Booksellers / Arco Publications hardcover

Blanc" was written by his brother Paul may in fact be the first collected book edition of any sort in English.While Osgood's edition entitled Doctor Ox etc was announced and registered in May and June 1874 respectively no copies were deposited until July 17th. This Gill edition was announced as "now ready" on July 11th ref. Taves & Michaluk V012. Interestingly Gill's announcement referred to a quarto size apparently quite rare if it exists; presumably a decision was made in favor of the known size about 7.3" x 5.6". In any case a popular translation one which was followed by a "New Holiday Edition" and a "popular edition". Condition: hinges tender rear hinge starting; spine shows some fading with small but notable fraying at top and bottom extremes; general mild soil and wear. Undated lightly-penciled previous owner's signature on flyleaf. Better than good most accurately about very good.
