Book excerpt: Excerpt from Five Weeks in a Balloon: A Voyage of Exploration and Discovery in Central Africa Dr. Samuel Fergusson his projected Journey how to accomplish it. - Dick Kennedy his attempts at Dissuasion their Failure. There have been disputes as to the originator of the great idea of traversing the African continent, in a manner to be independent of its multitudinous and deadly obstrue tions; but the subjoined narrative will, we cannot doubt, be sufficient to assure the reader that the man who under took, and in the face of unexampled difficulties carried out, the project, conceived it, and stands indebted to no one for the honours now accumulating on the name of Dr. Samuel Fergusson. Among men of science, the claims of any other than Fergusson to this invention of a method of, as it were, laying bare the bosom of a mighty continent at one blow.

Book excerpt: Five Weeks in a Balloon, or, Journeys and Discoveries in Africa by Three Englishmen (French: Cinq semaines en ballon) is an adventure novel by Jules Verne, published in 1863. It is the first novel in which he perfected the "ingredients" of his later work, skillfully mixing a plot full of adventure and twists that hold the reader's interest with passages of technical, geographic, and historic description. The book gives readers a glimpse of the exploration of Africa, which was still not completely known to Europeans of the time, with explorers traveling all over the continent in search of its secrets.Public interest in fanciful tales of African exploration was at its height, and the book was an instant hit; it made Verne financially independent and got him a contract with Jules Hetzel's publishing house, which put out several dozen more works of his for over forty years afterward.

(General assent). "Dr. Samuel Ferguson, one of her most glorious sons, will not reflect discredit on his origin." ("No, indeed!" from all parts of the hall.)
