About The Great Eastern
The Great Eastern by Howard A. Rodman is an anticolonial adventure novel, set in the 1850s-1870s in New York, London, India, Paris and the North Atlantic. Pitted against each other are two great 19th-century fictional anti-heroes, Jules Verne's Captain Nemo and Herman Melville's Captain Ahab. One lives beneath the waves and hates everything upon them. The other lives upon the waves and hates everything beneath. Caught in between is Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the preeminent civil engineer of Victorian England, kidnapped and pressed into service to build Nemo his submarine, and join him in his battle against the modern world.
