The Underground City or The Black Indies (Sometimes Called The Child of the Cavern): A Classic By Jules Verne! AAA+++

by Jules Verne, BDP (Editor)

Overview

The story of a city built underground in an old coal mine after new finds bring it back to life. This book is vintage Jules Verne. The "can do" spirit from the characters is refreshing as well as the romance that is held in honor and respect. A good book, that is a light read and reminds us of the spirit of adventure. Highly recommended to both young and old.
