Plot Synopsis:
(courtesy of D. Kytasaari - http://epguides.com/djk/JulesVerne/works.shtml)

Phileas Fogg accepts a wager that he can't travel around the world in eighty days, but it looks like trouble when Fix trails him, believing him to be a suspected gentleman thief.
Note: In some books and cartoons/comics, the main character is incorrectly called Phineas Fogg. The correct name for the main character of this book is Phileas Fogg.

Timeframe of novel: Events take place between October and December 1872

Around theWorld Records
Numerous people have gone around the world faster than Phileas Fogg, and there are always records being broken. I have compiled some Around the World Records on their own page

************************
* January 31, 2024 - Appologies to those that rely on my page for Accurate information ***

Up until today, I have shown the Fully illustrated Osborne, 1873, Around the World in Eighty Days as the U.S. First Edition,

and then shown the smaller, Unillustrated Osborne 1873, Tour of the World in 80 Days edition, (as a first edition), but almost as an "after-thought! -

With the corrections below, I have rectified that.

TRUE 1st English Edition, and 1st U.S. Edition is the Unillustrated, smaller, 1873 Osborne Tour of the World in 80 Days
1st U.S. ILLUSTRATED edition is the 1873 Osborne Around the World in Eighty Days

**************************

1st English and 1st U.S. Edition - July 1873

Variant A: No mention of Translator on Title page:

Variant B: The name George M Towle on Title page:

1st mention I can find in Press
Friday June 27, 1873, Page 1, The Boston Globe, Boston Massechusetts:

Mention of publication: Wednesday July 9, 1873 - Boston Evening Transcript:
"This fascinating little book..." but no mention of J R Osgood:

The Tour of the World in 80 Days
1873 (July)
James R. Osgood and Company
Late Tickner and Fields
Boston

Edges of the book are RED

1 illustration, the Frontis = Le Saint Michel

Ed: NO Precedence has been givento which came first, NO translator on the Title page, or Translator on the Title page.
I would assume NO translator, as the Translator name is continued on the Title page in the 1874 and 1875 editions!

IF translator noted on title page: Translated by: George M. Towle

Introduction by Adrien Marx

Pictorial Brown, Green, Blue
Saunterer's Series
Published: July 1873

SHOWN: Brick, Blue, Green
and Possibly Green with Black on cover?

*** Ed Note:
The cover of my Green copy, has a definite vertical line pattern (cover, spine, back) where my Brick cover, has a faint, but "really fine" diagonal pattern (if discernable at all!)
Oddly, my Brick copy is THICKER than my Green copy

For as a writer of pure adventure, of exciting narrative and hairbreadth escape, Verne has never been surpassed. Most of his predictions in the four books contained in this volume have already been fulfilled except, of couorse the trip to the moon (and rockets are now being built to accomplish this). The best of his stories are included in this one volume. With maps, endpapers and a frontispiece for each tale in two colors by Helene Carter."

The Jules Verne Omnibus: Twenty Thousaned Leagues Under the Sea & Around the World in Eighty Days &The Blockade Runners &From the Earth to the Moon and the Trip Around It nd(?)-1933 Blue Ribbon Books xxx Forth Avenue New York The Dustjacket says Jules Verne Omnibus & the Book says Omnibus Jules Verne like the previous Lippincott edition. The Dustjacket flap reads: "Four complete novels are included in this edition of the best-known works of Jules Verne. They have a double appeal. On the one hand, they rank with the classic adventure stories of Rudyard Kipling, G. A. Henty, and H. Rider Haggard, and on the other they are as much a part of everyone's literary background as Tom Sawyer or Treasure Island. The famous tales of Jules Verne are among the classic examples of scientific prophecy. At the time they were first published, they seemed the wholly impossible product of a too vivid imagination. Today we are not surprised at submarines and aeroplanes and rockets and we have surpassed even his prophecies of speedy travel. But we have not yet caught up with the prophecies of Jules Verne. Some of the activities of Captain Nemo of the good submarine Nautilus in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea will seem beyond the reach of human ingenuity, and our efforts with rocket ships are still only experimental. In many ways, Jules Verne is still in advance of the times, and the excitement and action of these stories remain a unique portion of the literature of scientific adventuring."
