In reference to the email below, I'm also a member of the American
Civil War Round Table of Australia and writing an article on Jules
Verne and his relationship to the American Civil War through his writing.
Between "The Blockade Runners", "North and South", the Baltimore Gun
Club in "From the Earth to the Moon", the Civil War escapees in
"Mysterious Island" and even the "Abraham Lincoln" in 20,000 leagues.

Best wishes from down under
