Description
1894 Mark Twain Innocents Abroad Illustrated Travel Guide Holy Land RARE
“One must travel, to learn.”
– Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad
This famous Mark Twain novel, “The Innocents Abroad”, was an important novel in the history of subscription only books. This book was huge – comparatively speaking – to the size of other books. When first printed, it resembled the size of a desk dictionary and gave the buyer a sense of more for your money because of its girth. It is considered Twains first real success and is described as a travel (or anti-travel, perhaps) book and is one of the best-selling travel books of all time. (Melton).
