Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910), more commonly known under the pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, lecturer, publisher and entrepreneur most famous for his novels "e;The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"e; (1876) and "e;The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn"e; (1884). First published in 1897, Twain's travel book "e;Following the Equator - A Journey Around the World"e; chronicles his 1895 tour of the British Empire when he was 60 years old. Fundamentally a social commentary, it is critical of what Twain considered England's oppressive imperialism and the racism that existed inside the empire. Other notable works by this author include: "e;The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today"e; (1873) and "e;The Prince and the Pauper"e; (1881). Read & Co. Travel is proudly republishing this fantastic adventure now in a new edition complete with a specially-commissioned biography of the author.
