Following the Equator: A Journey Around the World. Part 5 by Mark Twain
"Following the Equator: A Journey Around the World. Part 5" by Mark Twain is a travelogue published in 1897. Facing bankruptcy, Twain embarked on a lecture tour through the British Empire at age sixty, documenting his observations along the way. This work blends travel writing with sharp social commentary on indigenous cultures, politics, religion, and customs encountered during his journey. Twain employs his characteristic satirical style while offering perceptive descriptions of people
and places, and notably weaves fictional stories into this otherwise non-fiction account. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
