O knihe
When the local paper writes about the legendary Green Ray's elevating effects on mind and soul, young Helena Campbell vows to experience it for herself at whatever cost. She postpones the wedding being forced upon her against her will, which does not bother her at all. Together with her uncles, Sam and Sib Melville, she sets off on what becomes a near-epic quest. Joining them in the search are two would-be suitors for Helena, one an artist, the other an amateur scientist. Together, they will voyage to a distant shore--and beyond--braving hurricanes, testing their patience and resolve, and ultimately finding their own true selves. Their numerous attempts are always unsuccessful, thwarted by clouds or boats blocking the sun, until finally the phenomenon is visible, but they are no longer watching the horizon. Some of Verne's original text has been restored to this work as have more than 45 of the original illustrations. Also contains 3 interviews of Jules Verne held at various points in his life.
