June 12, 2008: Captain Nemo at a Book Sale in Bethlehem, PA
"Holzinger and the library volunteers who unearthed it don't even know who dropped off the 135-year-old book, a first American edition of Verne's novel about the mysterious Capt. Nemo and his submarine, the Nautilus."
"The book will go on sale at noon today at a book sale benefiting the library. Holzinger coordinates similar sales at the library six times each year, but few feature a rare find such as the Verne novel."
