Work decorated with original illustrations by L. Benett. Very rare signed autograph inscription from Jules Verne to Achille Tournier then Prefect of the Somme. Jules Verne settled in Amiens his wife's birthplace in 1871: ""At my wife's wish I settled in Amiens a wise city polished of even temper where society is cordial and learned. One is close to Paris close enough to have its reflection without the unbearable noise and sterile agitation. And to say everything my Saint-Michel remains moored at Le Crotoy."" His affection for the region would continue to grow and he would never leave the Picard capital actively participating in local political life. Appointed director of the Academy of Sciences Letters and Arts in 1875 he delivered on this occasion a speech that remained famous: ""An Ideal City: Amiens in the Year 2000."" In 1888 he was elected to the municipal council of Amiens where he served until 1903. It was the prefect of the Somme who presented him with his decoration when he was promoted to officer of the Legion of Honor in 1892. ""People often ask me why I reside in Amiens I who am so completely Parisian by instinct. Well because as I told you I have Breton blood and I love tranquility and I could not be happier than in a cloister. A calm life of study and work brings me joy."" June 1893 in Mac Clure's magazine. Work decorated with original illustrations by L. Benett. Fine copy. Hetzel hardcover

A nice example of this rare book. Collation: pp. Please see Photos as part of condition report. 1877 2nd Edition LES VOYAGES EXTRAORDINAIRES HECTOR SERVADAC A Travers Le Monde Solaire By Jules Verne Author Bio: Jules Gabriel Verne 8 February 1828 24 March 1905 was a French novelist poet and playwright. His collaboration with the publisher Pierre-Jules Hetzel led to the creation of the Voyages extraordinaires a series of bestselling adventure novels including Journey to the Center of the Earth 1864 Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas 1870 and Around the World in Eighty Days 1872. His novels always well documented are generally set in the second half of the 19th century taking into account the technological advances of the time. Verne is considered to be an important author in France and most of Europe where he has had a wide influence on the literary avant-garde and on surrealism. His reputation was markedly different in the Anglosphere where he had often been labeled a writer of genre fiction or children's books largely because of the highly abridged and altered translations in which his novels have often been printed. Since the 1980s his literary reputation has improved. Jules Verne has been the second most-translated author in the world since 1979 ranking between Agatha Christie and William Shakespeare. He has sometimes been called the "father of science fiction" a title that has also been given to H. G. Wells and Hugo Gernsback. In the 2010s he was the most translated French author in the world. In France 2005 was declared "Jules Verne Year" on the occasion of the centenary of the writer's death. Illustrated By: De. P. Philippoteaux Graves Par Lalante Illustrator Bio: Synopsis: The Armillary sphere type cartonage front cover was used between 1877 and 1883 Verne had problems with this novel from the very beginning.2 Originally he intended that Gallia would crash into the earth killing everybody aboard. This may have been the motivation for naming the hero "Servadac" with the mirror of the French word cadavres "corpses" predicting all would die on the "return". His publisher Hetzel would not accept this however given the large juvenile readership in his monthly magazine and Verne was forced to graft an optimistic ending onto the story allowing the inhabitants of Gallia to escape the crash in a balloon.
