| Summary | "With Airship and Submarine" by Harry Collingwood is an adventure novel written in the late 19th century. It follows the exciting exploits of Sir Reginald Elphinstone, his daughter, and Professor Heinrich von Schalckenberg as they embark on a journey aboard the extraordinary vessel known as the "Flying Fish." This ship boasts unique qualities, being capable of traversing the ocean's surface, descending underwater, and soaring through the sky, which sets the stage for a thrilling exploration filled with mystery and adventure. The opening of the story introduces the chance reunion between Sir Reginald and Professor von Schalckenberg at the Migrants' Club, where they discuss personal matters, including concerns over Sir Reginald's ailing daughter. They soon outline plans for a new adventure aboard the "Flying Fish," which involves recruiting additional members like Colonel Lethbridge and Captain Mildmay. As preparations intensify, the narrative establishes the camaraderie and excitement surrounding the expedition. The anticipation builds as they prepare to set sail, with hints of thrilling encounters and daring rescues, including a subplot involving a young Russian woman, Feodorovna Sziszkinski, who seeks help to rescue her father from the clutches of an unscrupulous count. Thus, the groundwork is laid for a story that combines imaginative technology with vibrant character interactions in exotic settings. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
