Jules Verne 
The Survivors of the Chancellor 

The Survivors of the Chancellor is one of those terrible tales of shipwrecks and disasters at sea that have a fearful fascination for all who read them. In the present story, Jules Verne has given the spirit of the many shipwrecks we have all of us read. The tale is well told, but it is very painful to follow. In the end rescue comes, a few are saved ; the descriptions of the sufferings are very explicit.
