Bag om The Man In The Moone
The Man in the Moone: Or The English Fortune Teller is a novel written by James Orchard Halliwell in 1849. The story follows a man named Domingo Gonsales who, after reading about the possibility of flying to the moon, sets out on a journey to do just that. With the help of a group of birds, he constructs a flying machine and sets off on his adventure. Upon reaching the moon, he encounters a civilization of moon people and becomes embroiled in their political and social conflicts. Along the way, Gonsales discovers new technologies and forms of government that challenge his own beliefs and values. The novel is a satirical commentary on English society and politics of the time, and also explores themes of colonization, imperialism, and the search for knowledge. The Man in the Moone is considered one of the earliest works of science fiction and has influenced many subsequent works in the genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
