1897 Mark Twain 1^ed More Tramps Abroad Following the Equator Travelogue India

“That’s the difference between governments and individuals. Governments don’t care, individuals do.” 

– Mark Twain, A Tramp Abroad

Mark Twain and his works were immensely popular all on their own. Such notable characters as Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn stood out above other 19^th-century literary characters, and not just in the United States. One of his lesser-known works is a social commentary entitled ‘Following the Equator’ of which the British Edition was titled “More Tramps Abroad”. This travelogue expresses views of racism, religious intolerances, and social oppressions prevalent in the British Empire, but holds extensive content deleted from the American edition.
