"The reason Verne is still read by millions today is simply that he was one of the best storytellers who ever lived." —Arthur C. Clarke

Phileas Fogg, a distinguished member of London's Reform Club, takes up a wager to circle the globe in just eighty days. Together with manservant Passepartout and a detective named Fix, Fogg makes a fantastic world tour utilizing every means of transportation available in the 1870's. This is a marvelous travelogue mixed with dazzling suspense, delightful fantasy, and lively comedy.
