Around the World in Eighty Days

About This Novel
In 1872, Mr. Phileas Fogg made a bet with his fellow members at the London Reform Club that he would travel around the world in eighty days. Under the circumstances at that time, this was indeed a difficult thing to do, because passengers must control the time very accurately, that is to say, they have to get on the ship as soon as they get off the train, and they have to get on the train as soon as they get off the ship. If there is any delay, the entire travel plan will be out of touch and all efforts will be wasted. But Mr. Fogg and his servant Know-It-All set out from London and passed through four continents: Europe, Africa, Asia, and the United States. They overcame countless natural and man-made obstacles with their firm will. They also rescued an Indian woman and married her, and finally returned to London after traveling around the world in eighty days. In this book, the author introduces the strange customs and rich geographical knowledge of various places through touching storylines.
