Introducing Diversion Classics, an illustrated series that showcases great works of literature from the world’s most beloved authors.
In this parody of a traditional travelogue, Mark Twain chronicles his expedition through Europe to the Holy Land. Although based on true events, THE INNOCENTS ABREAD is as full of ironic wit and smart satire as any of Twain’s novels. As the story takes us from France to Rome to Jerusalem, we discover truths about our world and its inhabitants, seen through Twain’s uniquely humorous lens.
