First serialized in a French newspaper in 1872, this is perhaps the
most beloved and the most enduring of Jules Vernes novels of
imaginative escapades. When Englishman Phileas Fogg takes on a bet
of 20,000 from his gentlemens club that he cannot circumnavigate
the globe in 80 days or lessan unheard-of feat in the Victorian
worldhe sets off, with his manservant Passepartout at his side, on
an series of exotic exploits and comic misadventures (Fogg is
mistaken for a thief on the run by a pursuing Scotland Yard
detective). An inspiration to generations of writers and readers,
Vernes fiction remains compelling and thoroughly enjoyable today.
French author JULES GABRIEL VERNE (18281905) is considered the
father of modern science fiction. Among his many groundbreaking
books are Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864), From the Earth
to the Moon (1865), and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1870)
