337 pp, trade paperback (approx. 8" H). ISBN 0880015195 "In volume two of 'Following the Equator', Mark Twain's lecturing tour around the world takes him to Ceylon, India, and South Africa, where he continues his chronicle of wonders both great an d small. Whether comparing the rowdy Indian blackbird to its less impressive American cousin, quoting from the official handbook of the brotherhood of thugs - a sect of professional murderers - or bringing the exaggerated merits of the Taj Mahal do wn to size, Twain exhibits the tart satire, wry humor, and instinctive eye for the unusual that are his trademarks. Mixing history with vivid observations of local customs and people, (this book) is an evocative and highly unique portrait of ninete enth-century travel and customs." Interior - clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exterior - clean and bright. Near Fine.
