Following The Equator (Spanish Edition)

Following the Equator, published in 1897, was one of Mark Twain's last major works. Written in his now-familiar format of the travel book (seen by the American public in the 1869 Innocents Abroad and the 1872 Roughing It), Following the Equator details Twain's travels in Fiji, New Zealand, Australia, India, and South Africa. Unfortunately, Following the Equator is a largely ignored and forgotten work of Twain's. While it is not his most impressive text in terms of humor, description, or style, a close examination of certain scenes in Following the Equator reveals important things about Twain's view of indigenous race in general, and how those views may have changed throughout his life.
