The Master of the World by Jules Verne
"The Master of the World" by Jules Verne is a novel published in 1904. In the summer of 1903, mysterious phenomena plague the Eastern United States as objects move at impossible speeds. Federal inspector John Strock investigates and discovers Robur, a brilliant inventor who has created the Terror—a revolutionary machine that operates as speedboat, submarine, automobile, and aircraft.

genius across land, sea, and sky. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
