Verne then worked as a stockbroker.His wife encouraged him to pursue his writing, and he became acquainted with Pierre-Jules Hetzel, an important French publisher. Hetzel helped improve Verne’s writings, which until then had been repeatedly rejected by other publishers. He died a wealthy man in 1905. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
