Beschreibung:
A rousing work of adventure by the esteemed author of From Hell and the acclaimed illustrator of Marshal Law. London, 1898. The Victorian era draws to a close, and the 20th century approaches. It is a time of great change and an age of stagnation, a period of chaste order and ignoble chaos. It is an era in need of champions. Allan Quatermain, Captain Nemo, Hawley Griffin, Dr. Henry Jekyll, Mr. Edward Hyde, and Mina Murray are those champions, and together they compose the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
