Around the World in Eighty Days

Jules Verne

Overview

Phileas Fogg wagers his fortune on completing a circumnavigation in exactly eighty days. With measured steps and his newly hired French valet Passepartout, he boards trains, steamers, and even an elephant, crossing Europe, India, the Pacific, and the American West. Verne charts the rhythms of timetables, monsoons, and human ingenuity without ever disclosing whether the wager will hold. The result is a brisk chronicle of Victorian technology and the stubborn logic of one man who trusts the schedule more than the weather.
