Summary
Published in 1869, this travelogue chronicles Twain's journey aboard the Quaker City to Europe and the Holy Land. With a sharp satirical eye, and scorn for hypocrisy in all its guises, Twain lampoons his fellow travelers as well as the locals they encounter. The book was Twain's most successful during his lifetime.
