This like-new hardcover is near fine, no marks, pages are tight and appear unread, the book is tight, square, and unmarked. The book is one of Mark Twain's earliest and most popular works. Originally published in 1869, this travelogue humorously recounts Twain's observations and experiences during a trip abroad on the steamship Quaker City. The journey included stops in Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Holy Land. This edition is part of the The World's Best Reading series, which features classic works of literature.
