Description
Le Tour du Monde en Quatre Vingt Jours is a rip-roaring tale of adventure on a global scale. On a high-stakes bet from his friends, wealthy Phileas Fogg enlists his trusty butler Passepartout to travel the railroads around the world. The goal? To return to London in no more than eighty days. Of course, no adventure so grand could ever go according to plan. The two men find themselves in one scrape after another, moving from country to country all the while. Bombay, Shanghai, San Francisco, and New York—all of these legendary locations play host to Phileas and Passepartout as they make their way around the globe. Can they make it back to London in time to win the huge wager? Or will a world of trouble prevent them from completing their ambitious quest?
