Description

An Apple Books Classic edition.

Phileas Fogg is a sensible, well-off man who uncharacteristically accepts a huge bet that he can’t travel around the world in 80 days. Along with his valet Passepartout, Fogg sets about to do the impossible via boats, trains, and even an elephant.

Since its publication in 1872, Around the World remains one of the most famous adventure stories out there. Jules Verne has a gift for weaving entire worlds with words, and in Fogg he’s crated a hero for anyone who’s ever dreamed of leaving their humdrum life behind.

    I don't quite feel enlightened, but I enjoyed this book thoroughly. It reads fast, somehow like a movie.

    I have a strong love for Verne. However I haven’t read this book 📖 until 3 days ago when I started. I quickly became in love with it and found it hard to stop reading!! Truly a great author ✍🏽

  • Really good book, but be aware.

    Verne is one of my favorite authors, and I love around the world in 80 days, but please note this is an abridged version, so unless you want simpler words, there are unabridged copies on here.

    The text has been modified from the original. Interesting words have been replaced with dullards.
