Masterman Ready by Frederick Marryat
The genteel Mr. Seagrave, the frequently indisposed Mrs. Seagrave and their four children: William, twelve, Tommy, six, Caroline 7 and Albert who is not yet one, sail on board the Pacific en route to the Seagrave's home in Australia. The Pacific runs into several storms and when the captain is struck unconscious, the ship's crew abandon the ship wholesale with the exception of the selfless Masterman Ready who elects to remain onboard the doomed vessel to help the Seagraves and their negro maid, Juno. Eventually, the weather clears and the prescient Ready leads the Seagraves to relative safety on a desert island where they seek food and shelter, survive several adventures and are even attacked by natives.
A Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne.
This is the thrilling classic tale by Jules Verne about a voyage to the center of the earth, where a lost civilization is found.
The genre of subterranean fiction already existed long before Verne. However, Journey considerably added to the genre's popularity and influenced later such writings. For example, Edgar Rice Burroughs explicitly acknowledged Verne's influence on his own Pellucidar
series. The story involves German professor Otto Lidenbrock who
believes there are volcanic tubes going toward the centre of the Earth.
He, his nephew Axel, and their guide Hans descend into the Icelandic
volcano Snæfellsjökull, encountering many adventures, including
prehistoric animals and natural hazards, before eventually coming to the
surface again in southern Italy, at the Stromboli volcano.
