(courtesy of D. Kytasaari - http://epguides.com/djk/JulesVerne/works.shtml)
An American con man claims to have a giant's forty-foot fossil skeleton as part of his collection.
When it comes time to display it, he claims some animals destroyed it, which ruins him.
However, this is part of his plan as a subscription list is opened for his benefit.
