Why read it?
1 author picked The Innocents Abroad as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this book because it might be the quintessential American book. Mark Twain brings an American perspective to his European travels that has, to my mind, never been matched.
His pose—the comic character he creates—is at once naïve and shrewdly intelligent, penetrating in his take on Europe and the Middle East. I love this book, but I also love Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer. With Mark Twain, you can’t go wrong.
From Alan's list on surviving an American presidential election.
