The Innocents Abroad: Or, the New Pilgrims' Progress by Mark Twain
3.0
Twain is Twain isn't he? He is very good as usual but it was just a little bit too much irreverent wit. Just as he complains about how many relics of saint so and so whom he saw all over Europe, so I could have stood for him to not go on about this every time. Mostly this book was interesting to me as an academic; it taught me much about 19th c. Americans thought about the Ottoman empire, the ME, and Islam.
