Twain's account of his trip to Europe and the Holy Land.




A most delightful account of Mark Twain's trip abroad in the mid eighteenth century, that can actually be related to as if it were written today. He takes you through every experience in great detail and you feel like you are there experiencing it too. You will marvel over and over again at his unique and superb way of writing. You will learn of his impressions of the voyage on the ship itself, of the people he encounters, and of the countries he visits. His point of view is not what you would expect, and it continually surprises. Unless you have an extensive vocabulary, You will undoubtedly be referring to your dictionary for many uncommonly used, but clever, intriguing, and amazing words that he uses to describe whomever or whatever he encounters. "The Innocents Abroad" is a completely satisfying journey to the very end. And here is a promise: You will laugh out loud all the way through this celebrated, wonderful book. --Submitted by Marjorie McGee
