Three of Michael Palin's famous journeys in one boxed set.

'Around The World In 80 Days'
Here we join Michael Palin on the first of his great adventures. Following in the footsteps of the fictional Phileas Fogg, he makes real the feat which author Jules Verne imagined over a century earlier. From the opulence of the Orient Express to the lurching progress of an Egyptian camel, from the hot and lively streets of Madras to the lofty heights of a hot-air balloon over Colorado, there is never a dull moment in this hilarious account of a journey full of surprises.

'Pole To Pole'
In this book we join Michael Palin on the second of his epic journeys. Travelling from the North Pole to the South Pole he experiences every extreme the globe has to offer. As Palin crosses 17 countries by train, truck, raft, Ski-Doo, barge, balloon and bicycle, he meets a diverse range of fascinating characters and landscapes while his own endurance is tested to the limit.

'Full Circle'
This is Michael Palin's third and most ambitious expedition to date. Travelling for almost a year through the 18 countries which border the Pacific Ocean, he encounters some of the most politically volatile and physically demanding places on Earth. Palin scales mountains, plunges down gorges, crosses glaciers and dodges icebergs as he ventures around the perimeter of the world's largest ocean in this spectacular journey of contrasts, drama and beauty.

Published for the first time as a trilogy, Michael Palin's bestselling books are essential reading for any would-be traveller. Writing in his engaging and witty manner, Palin paints a vivid picture of the people and places around him, making him one of the world's favourite travel writers.

Each book contains 16 pages for full colour photographs by Basil Pao.
