The Indian Equator Mark Twain's India Revisited

In 1895, Mark Twain set out on a year-long around-the-world lecture tour, in the course of which he gathered material for one of his most successful books, Following the Equator. Ian Strathcarron who followed the great humorist's journey through the Middle East in Innocence and War recounts Twain's passage through India and offers his own intriguing observations of the same sites a century later.

Ian David Patrick Macpherson, 3rd Baron Strathcarron, has had a varied career as a journalist, business executive, and spy novelist. He currently devotes himself to writing about his re-creations of famous writers' travels.
