The Steam House
Original title: La Maison a Vapeur
Author: Jules Verne
Translator: A.D. Kingston
First published: 1881
Source: MobileRead

The adventures of our somewhat bloodthirsty heroes as they criss-cross post-mutiny India, for the most part travelling inside a giant steam car pulled by a locomotive cast into the shape of a massive elephant. From any other author this would sound strange, but coming from the man who regularly fires his protagonists into space or sinks them beneath the waves it's clearly all in a day's work.

With 107 illustrations.
