Description: Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad & Roughing It, volume #21 in The Library of America. In The Innocents Abroad, Twain reports on the first American organized tour of Europe with a hilarious blend of vaudevillian comedy, actual travel guide, and stinging satire directed at both the complacency of his fellow American travelers and their reverence for European relics. In Roughing It, Twain recalls his early years in the Nevada Territory with tales of stagecoach travel, Native Americans, frontier society, the Mormons, the Chinese, and the codes, dress, food, and customs of the West, all interspersed with his own experiences as a prospector, miner, journalist, humorist, and lecturer. Hardcover book with dust jacket in Very Good condition:binding firm and tight; boards clean and bright; dust jacket shiny andunblemished; pages unmarked and un-dog-eared; bookmark ribbon secure.
