"A stranger arriving in the chief city of Illinois on the morning of 3rd April, 1897, would have had good reason for considering himself the most fortunate of travellers. His note-book that day would have had entries enough to yield copy for many sensational articles. And assuredly if he had prolonged his stay in Chicago by a few weeks before and a few months after, he would have taken a share in the emotions, palpitations, and alternations of hope and despair, of the feverishness and bewilderment even, of this great city for which the time was beside itself."

Thus begins Jules Verne's great adventure novel set in America.
