who is the man fully grown with a cheap cigar clamped between his teeth? Who is the man who made a white fence as famous as the wall of china? well ask your self this who has one of the funniest faces in American history? The answer to that riddle is Mark Twain.This book is a biography on the very same man who wrote such classics as the adventures of huckleberry Finn and the adventures of tom sawyer and his accomplishments and hard ships from 1871 to 1910. This book is also about the life of mark twain growing up in the west, experiencing some of the crazy things that he wrote about in his books.
Why am I so fond of this book? for one it has a great sense of detail in the information throughout the book. Everything said is fact like how his birth name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. another reason why i am fond of this book was reading about Marks so called tom sawyer days. Where he and his friends lived in a world of straw hats,corn-cob pipes, trout fishing,playing hooky,and watching steam boats ply the river. And probably the biggest reason is what I learned from this book and that is that life is not easy, even the most famous of people had a difficult path in life. Mark Twain suffered many hardships to get his place in history.This book is marvelous and I would recommend it to any fan of mark twain.
