Jules Verne, The new adventures of Phileas Fogg, Episode 4: The Elephant of Steel
Description of book
A new adventure takes Phileas Fogg and his companions to India. There, the British engineer Banks has created a mechanical masterpiece on behalf of the Maharajah: a powerful steam engine in the shape of a life-size elephant. Transported by this impressive machine, our heroes set off on a journey through the depths of the Indian jungle. But not only wild animals lurk in the thicket, but also the ghosts of the past. For the English officer Munro, it is his nemesis from the days of the expeditionary force. And for our heroes, it is an old acquaintance who is once again reaching out for power. The journey into the jungle soon becomes a fight to the death. Will Phileas Fogg, Aouda and Passepartout also pass this challenge?
