Around the World in 80 Days

Phileas Fogg (a very English gentleman) takes a bet that he can circumnavigate the globe in 80 days. The ensuing whirlwind escapade involves galloping horses, runaway trains, and a lumbering elephant, moving from sacred Hindu temples in Bombay to the American Wild West, and meeting Japanese acrobats, an Indian princess, and Mormon wives along the way, but will he beat the clock? Not if a relentless Scotland Yard detective has anything to say about it.
