This vivid chronicle of a sea voyage on the Pacific Ocean displays Twain's eye for the unusual, his wide-ranging curiosity, and his delight in embellishing the facts. The personalities of the ship's crew and passengers, the poetry of Australian place-names, the success of women's suffrage in New Zealand, an account of the Sepoy Mutiny, and reflections on the Boer War as an expression of imperialistic morality, among other topics, are the focus of his wry humor and redoubtable powers of observation. Following the Equator is an evocative and highly unique American portrait of nineteenth-century travel and customs. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Twain, Mark,|d1835-1910|xTravel. 650 0 Voyages around the world. 651 0 Equator|xDescription and travel. 700 1 Kevin, Michael. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 10026435?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ bsa_9781433252822_180.jpeg
