Description
1882 UK 1st ed Mark Twain A Tramp Abroad Travel Illustrated Satire Alps CLASSIC
“Thats the difference between governments and individuals. Governments dont care, individuals do.”
– Mark Twain, A Tramp Abroad
This Mark Twain novel, “A Tramp Abroad is a natural extension of The Innocents Abroad as a travel narrative, a return to the Old World. As a cultural document, it is also a natural continuation of the great popular movement of tourism, wherein the innocent becomes a tramp.” (Melton,78). This adventure voyages book is not one of Twains finer works, as many readers feel he rambles and lacks a sense of direction, but by writing with a sense of ironic prose and satire, “A Tramp Abroad” is still a desirable and recognizable Twain novel.
