Hardcover book is in new, unread condition, pages crisp and clean, no stains. No Dust jacket. Hardcover and binding are green. Gold lettering. No signs of use. Very slight shelf wear on edges of dust jacket from book bins. 432 pages long. 1990 edition. Size - 9 x 6 inches. 4 page leaflet included. Publisher: Readers Digest. Additional pictures of condition are available. BOOK DESCRIPTION: The Innocents Abroad is one of the most prominent and influential travel books ever written about Europe and the Holy Land. In it, the collision of the American "New Barbarians" and the European "Old World" provides much comic fodder for Mark Twain-and a remarkably perceptive lens on the human condition. Gleefully skewering the ethos of American tourism in Europe, Twain's lively satire ultimately reveals just what it is that defines cultural identity. As Twain himself points out, "Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." And Jane Jacobs observes in her Introduction, "If the reader is American, he may also find himself on a tour of his own psyche. No Jacket Hard Cover 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
