Dear Peter,

in reply to your request: in Germany the translations of J.V. started in
1873 directly with a couple of Vernes novels, and continued consequently in
the following time by "Hartlebens Verlag". Where the reason for the
interuption in swedish translations is - if in Sweden or France - I don't
know. But as J.V. is one of the most translated authors worldwide, allready
at his lifetime, I don't think that the fault is by Hetzel.

regards

B. Krauth
