Description
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, is perhaps America's favorite author. A quick-witted humorist who wrote travelogues, letters, speeches, and most famously the novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), Twain was so successful that he became America's biggest celebrity by the end of the 19th century. Despite writing biting satires, he managed to befriend everyone from presidents to European royalty.
It's often forgotten that Twain initially became popular for writing travelogues, and his most popular one was The Innocents Abroad, a book documenting his travels through Europe and the Middle East. While Twain wrote it as though it was a serious travel guide, he also included his unique brand of humor and injected it into the writing as well, making it incredibly entertaining and informative at the same time. In fact, it was the most popular work of Twain's in his own lifetime.
