# Facing the Flag

An audiobook by Jules Verne, read by LibriVox volunteers (6 h 11 min, English).

Like The Begum's Millions, which Verne published in 1879, it has the theme of France and the entire world threatened by a super-weapon (what would now be called a weapon of mass destruction) with the threat finally overcome through the force of French patriotism. (Summary by Wikipedia)
