Read in March, 2009, read count: 1

Much of this book was hilariously funny; other parts a bit scary (Americans abroad have changed little and it has been more than a hundred years since this was written). The title is apt, however, and I thoroughly enjoyed the journey with Twain through parts of the world where I have not been myself except in books, although I need to read some history of this time (1860's and 1870's roughly) to get a better handle on what Twain portrays here. It is a delightful trip. Try it.
