About This Book

Travel yarns that only America's best-loved author could spin.

With a sharp eye and an even sharper wit, Twain is the quintessential tour guide to 19th-century America. Dispatches showcasing his caustic, gimlet-eyed humor will take readers on a trot around the globe, from Hawaii to the Holy Land to Berlin ("Europe's Chicago").

The delicious assemblage of 68 tales features Twain's trademark style—a combination of breezy insouciance and droll barbarism—at its very best.
