Summary
"London, 1872. On the day his world is turned upside down by a postcard from a lost love, Phileas Fogg is inspired by an article about the exciting advances in travel to take on an almost impossible wager--to circumnavigate the globe in just eighty days. As a man who has spent the last twenty years in a comfortable leather armchair at The Reform Club, he will need all the resilience he can muster and of course would be nowhere without the assistance of quick-witted Frenchman, Passepartout. Joining them on the road will be the Daily Telegraph journalist who came up with the whole crazy idea in the first place--Abigail Fix."--
Notes
Adapted from the novel "Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours" by Jules Verne.
