Verne's hero took eighty days, so a New York reporter set out to embarrass him. Nellie Bly left Hoboken in November 1889 with one dress and a single bag, went east by ship and rail through England, Suez, Ceylon, Hong Kong and Japan, stopped in Amiens to meet Verne himself, and came home in seventy-two days.
