The Secret of the Island (Esprios Classics) : Illustrated by C. H. Barban. Translated by W. H. G. Kingston Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

"The Secret of the Island was another of the series of Voyages Extraordinaires which ran through a famous Paris magazine for younger readers, the Magasin Illustre.

It formed the third and completing part of the Mysterious Island set of tales of adventure.

We may count it, taken separately, as next to Robinson Crusoe and possibly Treasure Island, the best read and the best appreciated book in all that large group of island-tales and sea-stories to which it belongs.

It gained its vogue immediately in France, Great Britain, and overseas besides being translated, with more or less despatch, into other European tongues."
