The dour Fogg's obsession with his timetable is complemented by the dynamism and versatility of his French manservant, Passepartout, whose talent for getting into scrapes brings colour and suspense to the race against time. Five Weeks in a Balloon (1863) was Verne's first novel. It documents an apocryphal jaunt across the continent of Africa in a hydrogen balloon designed by the omniscient, imperturbable and ever capable Dr Fergusson, the prototype of the Vernian adventurer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971921903904,"sku":"NEW1853260908","price":12.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81B7dasSPjL.jpg?v=1783786237","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/around-the-world-in-eighty-days-5-weeks-in-a-balloon-wordsworth-classics-1853260908","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
