A Tramp Abroad with original illustrations
Twain's abundant humor waxes as freely as ever; this time, however, his amusement bears a more cynical cast, as he regards the grand tourist sights of 'Innocents' through older and more experienced eyes.
The Clemens family travelled to Germany, Switzerland, Italy, France, and England between April 1878 and August 1879. They were joined by their Hartford friend, the Reverend Joseph Twitchell, during their first summer in Europe, and he and Clemens took a month-long "tramp" together. Their adventures were documented in Mark Twain's third travel book, A Tramp Abroad, in which the two "pedestrians" took a walking tour through the Alps by means of every conceivable conveyance possible other than their feet. As the author advised, it was a book "written by one loafer for a brother loafer to read."
Published in 1880, this novel explores Twain's adventures from Germany through places like France, Italy, and Switzerland.
