Chapters 24 & 25 - Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne
About this episode
This episode covers Chapters 24 and 25 of Jules Verne's 'Around the World in Eighty Days', detailing the journey across the Pacific Ocean and the arrival in San Francisco.
Chapter 24 - In Which Mr. Fogg and Party Cross the Pacific Ocean Chapter 25 - In Which a Slight Glimpse Is Had of San Francisco The Pacific Ocean. The longest leg of the journey, and Verne dispatches it with characteristic efficiency. Chapter 24 gets the whole party across the Pacific in the way Fogg does everything - on schedule, without sentiment, and without once stopping to appreciate how remarkable it is that they're doing it. Then Chapter 25 lands us in San Francisco, and "a slight glimpse" is Verne being modest — there's enough happening in this chapter to make an impression. America. Final stretch. Let's go.
