This isn't a tale of derring-do, nor is it merely some kind of "cynical account"; it isn't meant to be, at least. It's a chunk of two lives running parallel for a while, with common aspirations and similar dreams.

Lieutenant Colonel Burnley Campbell, an Englishman, claims the record after completing the circle of the world In forty days and nineteen and one-half hours. When Jules Verne sent his famous hero of romance, Phileas Fogg, on a tour of the world he allowed him only eighty days, but that was in 1872. According lo the two time schedules, both of which were extraordinary for their day, Campbell came out a whole lap ahead of his predecessor, but the lines of fast travel have changed vastly in thirty-five years.
