Brief description:
Mark Twain (1835-1910) was born Samuel L. Clemens in the town of Florida, Missouri. He is one of the most popular and influential authors our nation has ever produced, and his keen wit and incisive satire earned him praise from both critics and peers. He has been called not only the greatest humorist of his age but also the father of American literature.
Review Quotes:
"Of all the extraordinary conceits that have germinated in his fruitful imagination, nothing more delicious has ever occurred to Mark Twain...Twain's rich humor never coursed more freely than here, where just provocation is never absent."
-- "Boston Herald"
