Travels with Twain

marktwain

High on my list of travel writing to read is that of Mark Twain. Besides the Huck Finn & Tom Sawyer classics, Twain wrote several popular books about his travels around the world. And his tales are making a comeback this fall, with two new releases of his previously written stories and commentaries on travel.

Already released is the National Geographic Adventure Classic reissue of Following the Equator, Twain's account of his 1895 round-the-world lecture tour journey.

And coming next month is a compilation from Lyons Press, Mark Twain on Travel, which includes excerpts from "Life on the Mississippi," "Roughing It," "Following the Equator," "Innocents Abroad" and "A Tramp Abroad."
