An Overview:
Around The World In 80 Days by Michael Palin, famous actor and comedian. Circumnavigates the world in the footsteps of Phileas Fogg, a character from Jules Verne's classic novel around the world in 80 Days.

Adhering to the same criteria applied for Phileas Fogg who travelled in a time when current modes of transport did not exist, notably aircraft! Pailin successfully manages to replicate Fogg's journey in 79 days and seven hours. But not without plenty of challenges, trials and tribulations.

A very entertaining audio book.

The Narration:
Superbly narrated by Michael Palin himself.
