Possibly the short story (The Junkyard ) by Clifford D. Simak as I recall, a real shockeroo with some deep questions-and some welcome humor as one of the characters, an engineer, gets drunk on purpose to defeat the mind-scrambling device in the tunnel He traipses about singing college songs of Georgia Tech! It"s a good story and not for those easily shocked, it"s a shocker.

The book you are referring to is likely "The Mysterious Island" by Jules Verne, published in 1874. The story follows a group of people who crashland on a mysterious island and must use their ingenuity to survive and repair their ship. They start from scratch and gradually build up their technological capabilities to ultimately escape the island.
