Description
"Around the World in Eighty Days" by Jules Verne is an adventure novel first published in 1872. Wealthy London gentleman Phileas Fogg wagers half his fortune that he can circumnavigate the globe in exactly eighty days. Accompanied by his French valet Passepartout, Fogg races against time across continents by train, steamer, elephant, and sled. But a detective mistakenly believing Fogg is a bank robber pursues them relentlessly, threatening to derail their precisely calculated journey at every turn.
