Jules Verne once more gives a sympathetic treatment to the Americans in this tale set during the English blockade of American ports. Originally published in 1871 as "Les Forceurs de Blocus." Translated from the French by Mrs. Arthur Bell.

Two heirs to an Indian Begum's estate -- Dr. Francois Sarrasin, a Frenchman, and Professor Schultz, a German -- split 525 million francs. With his half of the money, Sarrasin builds an ideal community called Frankville in the northwestern United States. Schultz uses his half to construct a city called Steeltown, which produces weapons of destruction. Of course, their ideologies clash . . . literally and figuratively.
