Five Union prisoners escape the American Civil War by hijacking a balloon, crash-landing on a remote volcanic island. Led by engineer Cyrus Smith, they transform from castaways into colonists, building tools, shelters, and even a ship. But mysterious events suggest an unseen protector watches over them. When pirates threaten their survival, the island's secret—and its connection to Captain Nemo—finally emerges. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
