| Publisher Description: Around the World in 80 Days is a classic adventure novel by the French writer Jules Verne, published in 1873. In the story, Phileas Fogg of London and his newly employed French valet Passepartout attempt to circumnavigate the world in 80 days on a 20,000 wager (roughly 2 million today) set by his friends at the Reform Club. It is one of Verne's most acclaimed works. "Anything one man can imagine, other men can make real." -- Jules Verne, Around the World in Eighty Days "A true Englishman doesn't joke when he is talking about so serious a thing as a wager." -- Jules Verne, Around the World in Eighty Days "I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new" -- Jules Verne, Around the World in Eighty Days |
