This volume continues Twain's humorous account of his 1867 voyage aboard the steamship Quaker City through Europe and the Holy Land. With characteristic wit, Twain contrasts romantic travel writing with reality, lampoons fellow tourists, and examines the collision between history and modern commercialism. He questions religious mythology, critiques the Catholic Church's wealth amid poverty, and discovers the Holy Land's modest scale compared to America's vastness.
