151184New York: Scribner Armstrong & Co. nd. Early Scribner edition cheaper than their first with fewer illustrations intended to meet the low-price challenge presented by Henry L. Shepard's cheap edition. . Hardcover. Good. 305 11 p. interspersed with plates. 20 cm. Frontispiece title vignette and 19 other b&w plates. Brown cloth with blank impressing and gold lettering. Mylar wrap removed for photos. Spine cloth chipped. Corners a bit bumped. Front hinge cracked internally. Bookplate for Theodore & Caroline Foster Sizer on front pastedown. Discolouration to text block edges. Some light soiling to first pages. <br/><br/>Early English translations of "Voyage au Centre de la Terre" generally added "A" in front of the title. Oddly Verne's Professor "Lidenbrock" becomes "Von Hardwigg" and there are other changes from the original French. Despite oddities in the translation "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" remains one of the greatest adventure stories of all time. Riou's illustrations enter into the spirit of the text including creepy dark caverns a mushroom forest prehistoric animals a sea monster a plain of bones "human" remains and so on. A modern adult is overwhelmed by the amount of scientific knowledge in Verne's head as well as his fertile imagintion. <br /> <br />Theodore Sizer 1892 1967 was an American professor of the history of art at Yale University and a director of the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven Connecticut.
