Title: Disappointing!
Product review: As a Mark Twain fan, I ordered this book on blind faith. It turned out that the best part of this volume was the introduction by the editor explaining why most of Mark Twain's travel books aren't very good. Indeed while I have read "Roughing It" a couple of times and enjoyed "Life on the Mississippi," I found Twain's other travel books, such as "Innocents Abroad," unreadable. I had hopes that this volume contained gems that had been mined from Twain's otherwise intractable travel volumes. Alas, this is not the case. This book only demonstrates further that most of Twain's travel writing isn't very good. Save your money for other Twain books, such as "Huckleberry Finn" or his "Autobiography," that have stood the test of time.
