The Innocents Abroad

By Mark Twain

Release : 1911-01-01

Genre : Travel in Europe, Books, Travel & Adventure

Kind : ebook

4.5 (0 ratings)
The Innocents Abroad (1869) is a burlesque of the sentimental travel books popular in the mid-nineteenth century. Twain's fresh and humorous perspective on hallowed European landmarks lacked reverence for the past-the ancient statues of saints on the Cathedral of Notre Dame are "battered and broken-nosed old fellows" and tour guides "interrupt every dream, every pleasant train of thought, with their tiresome cackling."
