Lighthouse at the End of the World

The publication of Bill Butcher's English translation of "The Lighthouse at
the End of the World" reminds me of an incident that occurred some 50 years
ago. At the time the only JV novels I knew about were the ones in the New
York City public libraries. A movie was playing called "The Lighthouse at the
End of the World" and the newspaper advertisements said that the movie was
based on a novel Verne had written. Considering myself something of a JV expert
I wrote to some New York City fraud investigating office bitterly
complaining the Verne had written no such novel.
