What this book is about
Phileas Fogg, a creature of absolute routine, bets the members of his Reform Club that he can travel around the world in exactly eighty days—then immediately sets off with his new manservant Passepartout to do it. Pursued by a detective who suspects him of bank robbery, encountering adventures from India to the American West, Fogg races the clock with quiet, methodical determination. Verne's most accessible and purely entertaining novel is adventure pleasure at its finest.
