This humorous travel book, based on Twain's stagecoach journey through the American West and his adventures in the Pacific islands, is full of colorful caricatures of outlandish locals and detailed sketches of frontier life. Wonderfully entertaining, Twain successfully finds humor in spite of his mishaps while also giving the listener insight into that time and place of American history.

Set in North Dakota, at a time in the early 20th century when Indian tribes were struggling to keep what little remained of their lands, 'Tracks' is a tale of passion and deep unrest.

Susanna Moodie (1803-1885) is the author of the best-known narrative of Canadian pioneer settlement life, Roughing It in the Bush. The story of her family's struggles to establish themselves in an environment they found to be strange, enchanting, hostile, and amusing, Roughing It is a highly detailed portrait of frontier conditions in Upper Canada in the 1830s. This new edition of Susanna's most important work offers for the first time the complete version that she intended for the public to read in 1852, including a chapter that has until now been omitted--from back cover.
