A Race Around the World: The True Story of Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland by Caroline Starr Rose

4.0

"25-year-old Nellie was plucky and quick. 28-year-old Elizabeth was thoughtful and reserved.... Yet both traveled faster than Phileas Fogg, turning his imaginary voyage into a real-life accomplishment, something no one - man or woman - had ever done before."

Interesting true story and wonderful illustrations. Now I want to read more about Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland!
