A message in a bottle sets off a quest for the recovery of shipwrecked crew in Jules Verne's classic novel, "A Message in a Bottle." Lord and Lady Glenarvan find a message in a bottle within a shark's belly, sent by Captain Grant of the shipwrecked Britannia. However, the water-damaged note is mostly unreadable, giving any would-be rescuers only a latitude and no longitude to work with. Eager to help the castaways, the couple urges the British government to launch a rescue expedition, but are refused. So they take it upon themselves to search for Grant with the help of Mary and Robert—Captain Grants children—and the crew of the Duncan. Thus, the group sets off, determined to find the shipwrecked crew, even if it means sailing across the entire thirty-seventh latitude—and facing whatever dangers lie in their path.
