Around the World in Eighty Days

One of the most popular books for those, who loves adventure and travelling. A very rich and respectable English gentleman Phileas Fogg knew a lot about different countries. He hadn’t many friends and spent a lot of time in Reform Club playing cards and discussing news. Once Mr. Fogg made a bet, that he could go around the world in only 80 days. Issue price was twenty thousand pounds. So Mr.Fogg and his French manservant Passepartout started their adventure at the 2 October, 8.45 p.m. and should be back home on Saturday 21 December at eight forty-five. They had to cross France, Egypt, India, China, Japan and America. In the second half of the 19th century, it was unimaginable. This venture became more incredible, when after few days of Fogg’s departure, detective Fix accused him of robbing and bank a begun to chase Phileas.

    When Phileas Fogg meets Passepartout

    London, 1872

    Let me begin by introducing a mysterious English gentleman called Phileas Fogg.

    Most people don't know very much about him, but because he does the same thing every day, some people think they know everything about him.

    He is very handsome and he is a true gentleman. He is certainly rich, but no one knows how he made his money.

    Has he ever been to another country? He can name a lot of countries on a world map and he knows the most incredible things about them. He probably travelled at one time, but some people insist that he has not left London for
