Description
1924 Mark TWAIN 1ed Autobiography Anecdotes Missouri Huck Finn Tom Sawyer 2v
“Mark Twains Autobiography. In Two Volumes”, published in 1924 by Harper and Brothers, is a unique compilation of the famed American authors reflections, memories, and contemplations, rather than a conventional chronological narrative of his life. The majority of this work was dictated by Twain in his later years, enabling the text to maintain an intimate and conversational tone. Introduced by Albert Bigelow Paine, Twains close friend and literary executor, the book encapsulates the freedom Twain felt in sharing his thoughts without restriction, knowing the work wouldnt be published until after his death. These volumes consist of around two-fifths of Twains unpublished writings, weaving together multiple starts and stops of autobiography attempts, and creating a rich tapestry of the iconic authors life as seen through his own eyes.
