Mark Twain's 1867 excursion to Jerusalem is recalled in this 60-minute documentary. A 31-year-old reporter at the time, he sailed on the world's first cruise ship and reported what he saw, later collecting the dispatches into his "Innocents Abroad" travelogue. Included: letters and documents written by Twain; film footage of him; and the first-ever footage shot in Jerusalem. Narrated by Martin Sheen, commentary provided by prominent Twain scholars.
