One of his most popular books is Around the World in Eighty Days. It is the story of an Englishman, Phileas Fogg. Phileas had an idea. He thought it was possible to travel around the world in eight days, using modern forms of transport. His friends didn't think it was possible. So one day in October 1872 Phileas had a bet with his friends, for Ł20, 000. The same evening he left London, on the train for Paris.
