Today I was speaking to a professor friend of mine who wondered whether
Twain's portrayal of the pilgrims in Innocents Abroad could be considered
the first portrayal of "the ugly American." Now I am wondering the same
thing. All thoughts, comments, well-reasoned diatribes and suggestive
innuendo, sexual or otherwise, will be welcomed.
