Travel literature by Марк Твен

Blurb

Following the Equator is a non-fiction travelogue published by American author Mark Twain in 1897.
Twain was practically bankrupt in 1894 due to a failed investment into a "revolutionary" typesetting machine. In an attempt to extricate himself from debt of $100,000 he undertook a tour of the British Empire in 1895, a route chosen to provide numerous opportunities for lectures in English.
