Cinq Semaines en Ballon Jules Verne

Cinq Semaines en Ballon by Jules Verne Ecrivain français, Jules VERNE a constitué la plus grande partie de son oeuvre de romans d'aventures utilisant les progrès scientifiques propres au XIXème siècle. Son premier roman paru en 1863, Cinq semaines en ballon connut un succès foudroyant en France puis dans le monde. Tenter de traverser l'Afrique d'est en ouest par la voie des airs, prétendre survoler dans sa plus grande largeur le dangereux continent noir à bord d'un fragile ballon livré à tous les caprices des vents, c'était, à l'époque de Jules Verne, une entreprise d'une audace incroyable.
