The Innocents Abroad

The Innocents Abroad sharply satirizes tourists who learn what they should see and feel by reading guidebooks. Assuming the role of a keen-eyed, shrewd Westerner, Twain was refreshingly honest and vivid in describing foreign scenes and his reactions to them. He alternated serious passages-containing history, statistics, description, explanation, argumentation-with risible ones. The humour itself is varied-sometimes in the vein of the Southwestern yarn spinners whom he had encountered as a young man, sometimes in that of contemporaneous humorists such as Artemus Ward and Josh Billings, who chiefly used burlesque and parody and other verbal devices.
