		Twain makes constant criticisms of various aspects of culture and society he meets while on his journey, some more serious than others, which gradually turn from witty and comedic to biting and bitter as he progresses closer to the Holy Land.
		He also equally makes light of his fellow travellers as he does the natives of the various countries and regions he visits.

		And the enemy abroad is not the only beneficiary of equating the self-defender with the aggressor.
		When America understands that the moral responsibility for the death of innocents in war is a matter of who aggresses, it will stop excusing the killers of women and children in the name of women and children.
		Sympathy felt for the innocents will not be accompanied by guilt, which paralyzes action, but by righteous outrage at those who start wars.

		This reticence will leave us very little to say by way of analysis; and, indeed, there is very little to say of "The Innocents Abroad" which is not of the most obvious and easy description.
		The idea of a steamer-load of Americans going on a prolonged picnic to Europe and the Holy Land is itself almost sufficiently delightful, and it is perhaps praise enough for the author to add that it suffers nothing from his handling.
		Clements's book are of a general rather than particular character, and the reader gets as travel very little besides series of personal adventures and impressions; he is taught next to nothing about the population of the cities and the character of the rocks in the different localities.

		One of these was The Innocents Abroad, which first appeared in 1869.
		Instead, reading Innocents Abroad, which was adapted from letters to newspapers that Twain wrote while taking his tour, I could focus on appreciating the writing simply for its own sake.
		If one section of Innocents stuck most in my memory, it was the part of chapter 27 that finds Twain describing, to delirious effect, how he and some mischievous co-conspirators flummoxed one of their innumerable guides.

		The Californian hastened to say that Americans had been cured of such behavior by what he termed the "Ugly American Syndrome", and evidently he meant that the world's steadfast loathing of American foreign policy, and its rather more fickle loathing of American people, obliged us to tread quietly.
		In any case, I began to envision a short story to be titled "The Ugly Englishman", in which a few gentle Thais decide to feed an obnoxious yob to the sharks, perhaps after the fiftieth time he has slurred orders at them in one of his unintelligible dialects.
		This had not been the first time I had heard the phrase "Ugly American", and in every case it had meant an American abroad who is dumb, pampered, brash, and almost impossibly unaware of local customs and languages.

		And once out--once where they could see the ship struggling in the strong grasp of the storm--once where they could hear the shriek of the winds and face the driving spray and look out upon the majestic picture the lightnings disclosed, they were prisoners to a fierce fascination they could not resist, and so remained.
		It was a rare thing and a joyful, to see all the ship's family abroad once more, albeit the happiness that sat upon every countenance could only partly conceal the ravages which that long siege of storms had wrought there.
		Their unfeline conduct in eating up all the Tetuán cats aroused a hatred toward them in the breasts of the Moors, to which even the driving them out of Spain was tame and passionless.

	"The Innocents Abroad" or the new pilgrim's progress by Mordecai Richler
		I have no doubt that The Innocents Abroad, released today, would be banned in schools, the author condemned as a racist, and possibly, just possibly, finding himself the subject of a fatwa.
		On one level, surely, The Innocents Abroad was meant as an antidote to the insufferably romantic, cliché-ridden travel books of the period, written by intimidated colonials genuflecting to European culture and exaggerating the charms of the Holy Land.
		He should be sent immediately a copy of The Innocents Abroad, the American coming-of-cultural-age book, the first major offering of a great writer, which belongs on a small shelf of Twain classics, alongside Life on the Mississippi, Huckleberry Finn, and Connecticut Yankee.

		The idea of a railroad train actually running to old dead Pompeii, and whistling irreverently, and calling for passengers in the most bustling and business-like way, was as strange a thing as one could imagine, and as unpoetical and disagreeable as it was strange.
		We hailed a boat that was two or three hundred yards from shore, and discovered in a moment that it was a police-boat on the lookout for any quarantine-breakers that might chance to be abroad.

	How the Innocents Abroad was written (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		I do believe that if Clemens had not been under contract to write for the Hartford firm his 'Innocents Abroad,' he never would have done it.
		He is glad that he did write now, for that 'Innocents Abroad,' written in that little back room in Indiana Avenue, in Washington, has been the making of the fame and fortune of Mark Twain.
		Whether he smokes the same stinking old pipes; whether he wears the same soiled undershirts' whether he heats his room with the old uncleaned stoves; whether he swears at his own or other people's servants; whether he mopes and snarls and whines--well, I don't care.
