Die 1,000,000 Pfundnote und andere humoristische Erzählungen und Skizzen

Mark Twain

This volume brings together nineteen stories and humorous sketches by Mark Twain. Alongside the title tale, in which a million-pound note exposes the power of apparent wealth, it offers travel pieces on Berlin, Niagara, and Mount Rigi, as well as sharp satires of journalism, bureaucracy, science, and human self-importance.
