A message in a bottle launches a mission to recover the shipwrecked crew in this classic work by Jules Verne, which now has a striking new look! When Lord and Lady Glenarvan catch a shark during a sailing trip, they are surprised to discover a message in a bottle in its belly, sent by Captain Grant of the shipwrecked Britannia. Unfortunately, the water-damaged note is almost unreadable, giving the would-be rescuers only a latitude and no longitude to work with. Ready to help the castaways, the couple urges the British government to launch a rescue mission but is rejected. Thus, they decide to search for Grant themselves with the help of Mary and Robert—the captain's children—and the crew of the Duncan. Thus, the team sets out, determined to find the shipwrecked crew, even if it means sailing the entire 37th parallel—and facing whatever dangers they find along the way.
