Artist: Jules Verne
Book: Le Tour du Monde en Quatre-Vingts Jours
(Around the World in Eighty Days)
Notes: Wall-clock time plays a central role in the plot.
European readers of the 1870s clearly held the U.S. press in
deep contempt; the protagonists cross the U.S. without once
reading a paper.
An on-line French-language version of the book
"with illustrations from the original 1873 French-language edition"
is available at
