Explore "Robur the Conqueror" by Jules Verne on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
When the "Albatross" was high in the air the island could be seen to be / of moderate size. But on what parallel was it situated? What meridian / ran through it? Was it an island in the Pacific, in Australasia, or in / the Indian Ocean? When the sun appeared, and Robur had taken his / observations, they would know; but although they could not trust to the / indications of the compass there was reason to think they were in the / Pacific.
At this height-one hundred and fifty feet-the island which measured / about fifteen miles round, was like a three-pointed star in the sea.
