Details: Often referred to as “The Father of Science Fiction,” Jules Verne wrote many fanciful tales. But, in 1865, at the close of the Civil War, he wrote a forward-looking tale about space travel using surprisingly accurate calculations. The Baltimore Gun Club decides to build a giant cannon, large enough to launch a projectile all the way to the moon, and then, after a wager, decide to make it a manned mission. Can they make it happen as they struggle with their inner demons and an old enemy? Find out in this prophetic, classic story, told with wit and style.
