at the pictures opposite?

Will the Little Dragon escape the

pirates?

In the 19th Century pirates

terrorized the China Seas. The

ships whose paths cross, but

are often hidden from each

other by the islands.

Innocence and War Mark Twain’s Holy Land Revisited Ian Strathcarron

In 1867, a major California newspaper commissioned Mark Twain to accompany a group of travelers to the Holy Land and to write about his experiences. The trip provided the humorist with an abundance of material for his satiric classic The Innocents Abroad. A century and a half later, author Ian Strathcarron scrupulously retraces Twain’s footsteps, recounting the history of his predecessor’s journeys and his own impressions of the region and its people. U.S. and Canada only.
