Mark Twain Remembers

About Specification

The creator of Missing and the international

bestseller Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times is back with

his most compelling work to date.

The year is 1910. Mark Twain lies on his deathbed,

reflecting back on a six-week period in his life that occurred

in 1856 when he was twenty years old.

Meticulously researched and masterfully told, Mark Twain

Remembers captures Twain's voice and the tenor of his times.

It's the tale of young Sam Clemens coming of age and coming

to grips with slavery, love, betrayal, and the other forces that

would frame his thinking and shape his writing for the rest of his life.

It's a book that, like Twain's own classics, is destined to become

part of contemporary American dialogue on values and race.

And it's a marvelously entertaining read.
