The Mysterious Island tells the tale of five Americans who, in an attempt to escape the Civil War, pilot a hot-air balloon and find themselves crashed on a deserted island somewhere in the Pacific. Verne had been greatly influenced by works like Robinson Crusoe and The Swiss Family Robinson, and that influence shines brightly in this novel of engineering ingenuity and adventure. Verne imparts the escapees with such over-the-top cleverness and so many luckily-placed resources that modern readers might find the extent to which they tame the island comical. Despite that, the island contains genuine mysteries for the adventurers to solve.
The book tells the story about a group of castaways who find themselves on a deserted and mysterious island, where they must face all kinds of dangers to survive and discover the secret of the island.

As may be expected, this boarding school of mini-Robinson Crusoes is going to be shipwrecked on an island where they will repeat the experience of the castaways of Mysterious Island rather than the ordeals of those of Wrecked on a Reef. Verne could not inflict on his boys the great hardships described by Raynal; the point of his tale is to convince his youthful readers to become self-reliant and to act in unison with others. 2ff7e9595c
