When Jules Verne published his popular
book, Around the World in Eighty Days,
travel was still slow. To travel around the
world in eighty days seemed impossible in the
real world. In 1889, America’s first female
reporter, Nellie Bly, convinced her editor that
she could beat that time and any man who
tried to compete with her. On November
14, 1889, Nellie got on board the steamship
Augusta Victoria, leaving Hoboken, New
Jersey. The race against the clock began at
9:40 a.m.
She traveled to France where she met Jules
Verne. They mapped out Nellie’s itinerary
to match the route in Jules Verne’s book.
Nellie went on to Italy. She then sailed
through the newly dug Suez Canal. She sailed
from Yemen to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) to
Singapore. There, she bought a monkey who
traveled the rest of the route with her. She
learned that a young female reporter had been
sent by a magazine and was ahead of her.
This did not stop Nellie. She continued on
to Hong Kong and Japan before crossing the
Pacific Ocean to San Francisco.
Nellie then traveled across the southern part
of the United States by train to New Jersey.
She set foot on the Jersey City train station
seventy-two days, six hours, and eleven
minutes after starting her journey. Her
amazing race made her a national heroine.
