Around The World in 80 Days

---

One evening while relaxing after dinner at the Reform Club, Phileas Fogg, a gentleman of great wealth and exacting tastes, makes an extraordinary £20,000 wager. He will perform an impossible feat and circumnavigate the globe in just 80 days. Breaking the well-established routine of his daily life, the cool-headed Englishman and his hot-blooded French man servant Passepartout immediately set off for Dover. Adventure, chaos and romance ensue as Fogg and Passepartout harness the new power of steam to escape their ever-increasing enemies and beat the clock. Whether travelling by train, steamship, sailing boat, sledge or even elephant, they must overcome storms, kidnappings, natural disasters, Sioux attacks and Inspector Fix of Scotland Yard, who believes Fogg has robbed the Bank of England, to win this extraordinary wager.
