Early futuristic “adventure” tale written in 1897, depicting the-then-far-flung world of the entire year of 1947.

A double experience written at the end from the nineteenth hundred years, somewhat in the theme of Jules Verne’s 20 Thousand Leagues beneath the Sea and Journey to the Center of the planet earth, The Great Stone of Sardis tells of a submarine trip to reach the North Pole and a task to examine the guts of the planet earth by boring a deep shaft. What they discover at the primary of the planet surprises the enterprising explorers.
