Will Of An Eccentric

Volume 46 of 54 in Jules Verne's "Extraordinary Voyages", first published in 1899. A fabulously wealthy (and fabulously strange) man has died, and his will details a very strange bequest to the survivors; a seemingly random selection of people are pitted against each other in a real life board game, where the United States of America is the board! Who will reach the end of the game first, and claim the $60,000,000 prize? This particular edition is reproduced from English-edition public works, and is presented simply with an emphasis on straightforward presentation, attractiveness and continuity of appearance, with each title in the "Extraordinary Voyages" sporting a journal-style brown cover accompanied by a cover illustration and quote from the text on the back cover.
