Excerpt from The Complete Works of Mark Twain: Tom Sawyer; Abroad So he did it. He had a little wee bit Of steamboat ing, and some stage-coaching, but all the rest of the way was horseback, and it took him three weeks to get to Washington. He saw lots Of land and lots Of vil lages and four cities. He was gone 'most eight weeks, and there never was such a proud man in the village as he when he got back. His travels made him the greatest man in all that region, and the most talked about; and people come from as much as thirty miles back in the country, and from over in the Illinois bottoms, too, just to look at him and there they'd stand and gawk, and he'd gabble.

Tom Sawyer Abroad


Book Description

This collection begins with two further tales featuring Tom Sawyer--and narrated by Huckleberry Finn! "Tom Sawyer Abroad" finds Tom, Huck, and Jim traveling to Africa in a futuristic hot air balloon, where they survive encounters with lions, robbers, and fleas to see some of the world's greatest wonders, including the Pyramids and the Sphinx. While in "Tom Sawyer, Detective," naturally, Tom is drawn into a mysterious murder. Written for children's magazines, the first two tales are both pastiches of common tropes--Vernian adventure and the detective story. While not as successful as the novel, they nevertheless express Twain's continuing affection for his best-loved characters.
