AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
New illustrated edition of drawings by Férat, engraved by Barbant. The original of this work by Jules Verne was published in a binding with two elephants. Our copy is in a very beautiful binding with one elephant (1905 - 1919).
Hetzel publisher's carton board, called 'fan and an elephant with a title in the fan,' with the back to the lighthouse, the front cover featuring scientific instruments gilded in the foreground, three gilded illustrations and green foliage, all edges gilded.
Condition: beautiful first plaque, gilding and bright colors, second plate similar, well-preserved back. Slightly rubbed covers and slightly pierced corners. Hinge play (back partially detached), one loose board, some foxing.
Michel Strogoff is a historical adventure novel recounting the journey of its eponymous character, courier of the Tsar of Russia Alexander II, from Moscow to Irkutsk, the capital of eastern Siberia. His mission is to warn the Tsar's brother, who has been left without news from Moscow, about the arrival of Tartarian hordes led by the traitor Ivan Ogareff to invade Siberia.
