Jules Verne

From the Earth to the Moon [Annotated] Jules Verne

"This is the fourth book in in the Extraordinary Voyages Series. From the Earth to the Moon tells the story of the Baltimore Gun Club, a post-American Civil War society of weapons enthusiasts, and their attempts to build an enormous Columbiad space gun and launch three people (the Gun Club's president, his Philadelphian armor-making rival, and a French poet) in a projectile, with the goal of a moon landing."
