Around the World in Eighty Days

Jules Verne's beloved adventure follows the imperturbable English gentleman Phileas Fogg, who wagers half his fortune that he can circumnavigate the globe in just eighty days. Accompanied by his resourceful French valet Passepartout, Fogg races against the clock by steamship, railway, sailboat, and even elephant—braving storms, rescuing a princess from peril, and dodging a detective who believes him to be a bank robber. From the bustle of Victorian London to the jungles of India and the American frontier, this thrilling, witty tale of ingenuity and determination has captivated readers for over 150 years. A Raven's Gate Classics edition with adventurous new cover art.
