On Reading Jules Verne's Stories

Every time I read (or listen to or watch) a Jules Verne story, it makes me wish I lived in the 1890s. It seems like amazing scientifc discoveries were just laying on the ground, waiting to be found. There was no need for expensive equipment or laborious training, just cleverness, observation and some basic scientific knowledge.


As they used to say in the 1890s, Jules Verne rocked most efficaciously.
