]]>The book begins with Twain heading to Europe with a group of Americans who are set on exploring the world, and it ends in the Holy Land or what is now known as Israel. Along the way, he meets a variety of different characters who feature heavily in the book, and are described with great humor by Twain. What is perhaps most interesting, is the main theme in the novel—the clash between past and present.
This theme is very much relevant today, as the effects of colonialism and the politics in many countries are still very much entwined. If you want to read something that will transport you back in time, and make you laugh out loud, then this is the travelogue for you. You will quickly see why it is one of the best-selling travel books ever written.
