A. pseudonym of Jean Francois Paschal Grousset 1844-1909. Laurie was a contemporary and sometimes a collaborator of Jules Verne. “Like Jules Verne he was another discovery of publisher Pierre-Jules Hetzel. Two of his manuscripts were modified by Jules Verne to become Les Cinq Cent Millions de la Begum 1879 and L'Étoile du Sud 1884 and credited to Verne. L'Épave du Cynthia 1885 was attributed to both Verne and Laurie; it is entirely Grousset's work”. Wikipedia. A summary of this story :- “A consortium which intends to exploit the Moon’s mineral resources decides that since our satellite is too far to be reached it must be brought closer to the Earth. A Sudanese mountain composed of pure iron ore becomes the headquarters of the newly established Selene Company. Solar reflectors are used to provide the energy required to convert the mountain into a huge electro-magnet with miles of cables wrapped around it. A spaceship-observatory is then built on top of the mountain. When the experiment begins the mountain is ripped away from the Earth and catapulted to the Moon. There the protagonists have various adventures and eventually return to Earth by re-energizing the mountain.” Wikiedia. Hardcover.
