Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea

by Jules Verne

A scientist is taken captive aboard a submarine by a man who has quit the surface world entirely and built himself a better one underwater. Verne got the engineering almost eerily right, decades ahead of the actual technology. Nemo’s grief, less noted at the time, has aged rather better than his hardware.
