About this ebook
Mark Twain
Samuel Langhorne Clemens was born in Missouri in 1835, the son of a lawyer. Early in his childhood, the family moved to Hannibal, Missouri – a town which would provide the inspiration for St Petersburg in Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. After a period spent as a travelling printer, Clemens became a river pilot on the Mississippi: a time he would look back upon as his happiest. When he turned to writing in his thirties, he adopted the pseudonym Mark Twain ('Mark Twain' is the cry of a Mississippi boatman taking depth measurements, and means 'two fathoms'), and a number of highly successful publications followed, including The Prince and the Pauper (1882), Huckleberry Finn (1884) and A Connecticut Yankee (1889). His later life, however, was marked by personal tragedy and sadness, as well as financial difficulty. In 1894, several businesses in which he had invested failed, and he was declared bankrupt. Over the next fifteen years – during which he managed to regain some measure of financial independence – he saw the deaths of two of his beloved daughters, and his wife. Increasingly bitter and depressed, Twain died in 1910, aged seventy-five.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5For people who have limited time for reading and whose favorite line is “So many books, so little time”, this book is for you. It is just a few pages and you could finish it in one sitting.I found this book in the section “Banned Books” at manybooks.net and I have no idea why such an excellent book could be banned. After reading this book I was like: Wow! This is something. Well, duh – It’s written by Mark Twain, no wonder it has the bearings of a classic. This book can be summed up into one word: fascinating. The ending will leave you hanging… but that actually is a good thing. It will make you think… or in other words, it is thought provoking as my journalism teacher would say. Well, obviously that is another good thing if you believe that a book should not be the one that will think for you but instead the one that will make you think.Happy reading! (in case you decide to read this book)
