The Innocents Abroad — Volume 01 by Mark Twain
"The Innocents Abroad — Volume 01" by Mark Twain is a travel book published in 1869. It humorously chronicles Twain's five-month steamship voyage through Europe and the Holy Land with American travelers in 1867. Twain contrasts his experiences with exaggerated contemporary travelogues, lampooning fellow tourists and challenging romanticized views of history. The narrative explores tensions between ancient heritage and modern commercialization, questioning how the past is preserved, exploited, and remembered. It became
Twain's best-selling work during his lifetime. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
