Following the Equator: A Journey Around the World. Part 6

by Mark Twain

"Following the Equator: A Journey Around the World. Part 6" by Mark Twain is a travelogue published in 1897. Written during financial desperation, this work chronicles Twain's lecture tour through the British Empire at age sixty. The journey became an opportunity for sharp social commentary on indigenous cultures, politics, religion, and customs encountered along the way. Twain blends perceptive observations with satirical wit, and even weaves fictional stories into this otherwise non-fiction account of his travels across distant lands.
