Omschrijving

In the 1800s the newspaper is king and female journalists are few and far between. Intrepid reporters Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland are pitted against the clock and each other in a madcap publicity stunt that the whole world is watching--read all about one of the first viral news stories reported on and starring two fearless female journalists in the race of their careers

Everyone knows about Jules Verne's Around the World in Eighty Days, but what about a real-life mad dash around the world in less than 80 days?

This is the challenge that journalist Nellie Bly tackles in 1889--her mission is to beat the famous fictional record set by Phileas Fogg, the main character of Jules Verne's famous novel. Whether or not the stunt is successful, it will mean big sales for the paper she writes for, the New York World.

But as Nellie Bly sets off on her journey, up-and-coming competing newspaper Cosmopolitan decides to send another woman, Elizabeth Bisland, on the exact same journey, turning an already challenging publicity stunt into a competition that pits the two women against each other on the world stage.

As the press coverage heats up, the world watches breathlessly and the public pressure intensifies. Bly and Bisland are embroiled in a race against time, with sexism and prejudice to contend with to boot. A breathless, lively, and gripping graphic novel recounting the real-life tale of one of the most famous publicity stunts ever attempted by two fearless female journalists!
