Around the World in 80 Days - Paperback

by Jules Verne (Author)

The story will surely be as exciting for the reader as was the journey around the world for Phileas Fogg, the one who actually goes around the world in 80 days. The plot begins with the affluent lifestyle of Fogg who lives his life by the clock and mingles with his wealthy acquaintances as he dines every day at the Reform Club social organization. The men place a random bet that it would be impossible for anyone to journey around the world in 80 days, to which Fogg takes it head one and says that he can definitely do it. Once the wager has been settled, Fogg, for the stickler for time that he has, does not lose a second and rushes home to pack and takes along his servant on the voyage around the world. The story is about the series of adventure that he comes across during the course of the journey whether he is finally able to make it or not.
