How 'bout an annotated edition with the MSS. and the published version in
parellel columns?

The first such Verne book to be so honored would have to be Twenty Thousand
Leagues, but let's not stop there!!!

Bill, maybe you'd better found an institute for the training of the schoarly
army it will take to reveal the "hidden treasures" now buried beneath
"edited", or rather censored, versions!!!! It may take more than one man's
threescore and ten to scrape away all the dross.
