{{Tr|W. J. Gordon}}. This translation begins: ""An island to sell, for cash, to the highest bidder!" said Dean Felporg, the auctioneer, standing behind his rostrum in the room where the conditions of the singular sale were being noisily discussed."

Year 1883 may be correct, but the title page imprint "Sampson Low, Marston & Company, Limited." (Project Gutenberg and its presumable source edition) is an anachronism before 1891 or so.

Format is square 16mo. Sources:

  • Title, publisher (Sampson Low, Marston & Company), translation and page count from scanned copy at archive.org.
  • Title, translator and translation, publisher (Sampson Low), date (March 1883) and format from Jules Verne Encyclopedia.
