A Tramp Abroad (1880) (Oxford Mark Twain)

A Tramp Abroad published in 1880 is Mark Twain's second travel book a sequel to his immensely popular The Innocents Abroad. Here Twain returns to Europe in the company as Russell Banks puts it in his introduction of a genial "goad guide and all-purpose straight man" modeled on his friend and real-life traveling companion Joe Twitchell who "plays Butch Cassidy to Twain's Sundance Sancho to his Quixote." The eccentric journey they take through Germany Switzerland Italy and other countries constantly veers into imaginative burlesques exaggerations tall tales and humorous digressions the most well known of which are the inimitable "Baker's Blue-Jay Yarn" and "The Awful German Language." The travelers gamely take in student duels Wagnerian opera and the works of the Old Masters; they travel by raft train and donkey cart listen to folk legends and dreadful pianists scale the Alps and view cathedrals he found noble in their ugliness. But the sight that cheers them most is that of New York harbor on their return. A Tramp Abroad Banks reminds us celebrates two "American males clearly blessed with the gift of friendship of giving it and of receiving and holding onto it."[]
