A book this unique and exciting called for a cover every bit as unique and exciting. Author T. E. MacArthur went outside the box to photographer and artist S.N. Jacobson for the overall artwork and design. He did a fabulous job working tirelessly with both Thena and TreasureLine Publishing to get it just right. Some of his work and talent may be experienced through his site: http://www.snjacobson.com/

For the Nautilus depicted on the front cover, Thena took it a step beyond, calling on Frank Chase to re-envision Nemo's submarine. He worked hard to pull out the details provided in Verne's book: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. His website is fascinating:

Kudos to all for a cover well done!
