At the wanderers' Migrants' Club, Professor von Schalckenberg makes a startling suggestion, a marvelous vessel that can fly through the air and dive beneath the sea alike.

Harry Collingwood's 1887 novel is a rousing Victorian scientific-adventure romance. Inventive, thrilling, of its era. Read it for a delightful Verne-flavored yarn where a band of adventurers build an all-purpose flying submarine, the Flying Fish, and set off on globe-spanning perils by air and water.
