Around the World in Eighty Days Jules Verne On October 2, 1872, an English gentleman makes a remarkable wager: He can travel around the entire world in a mere eighty days.

Phileas Fogg and his faithful manservant, Passepartout, embark on a fantastic journey into a world filled with surprises, danger, and beauty from the shores of India, where the travelers rescue the beautiful wife of a rajah from ritual sacrifice, to the rugged American frontier, where their train is ambushed by an angry band of Sioux. With twenty thousand pounds at stake, Fogg s mission is complicated by an incredible case of mistaken identity that sends a Scotland Yard detective in hot pursuit. A riveting race against time and an action-packed odyssey into the unknown, "Around the World in Eighty Days" is a masterpiece of adventure fiction that has captured the imaginations of generations of readers and continues to enthrall us today. With an Introduction by Herbert Lottmanand a New Afterword by Karen J. Renner"
