Following the Equator

Description of book

The classic travelogue of one of America's most famous authors, Following the Equator was written when Twain had fallen on hard times. At the time, Twain found himself compelled to take a tour of the British Empire in 1895 and write about it.

This account of that trip, published in 1897, is a classic example of Twain's ever-vigilant observational wit. He addresses ever timely topics such as racism, imperialism, and religion.
