Synopsis coming soon.......
Fine verbatim reproduction of Mark Twain's first book. "Mr. C. H. Webb has celebrated his debut as publisher by bestowing upon a community long rested from loud laughs, a book calculated to promote healthy good humor in the system. Mark Twain's book of California stories, 'The Jumpin' Frog and Other Sketches' -- is a work that will make its readers merry... There are few who can resist the quaint smiles, keen satire, and hard good sense which form the staple of the writings." --New York Evening Express, 1867
With his trademark wit, the author provides a running commentary on his experiences traveling in Europe and the Middle East, poking fun at tourists and tour guides and revealing what happens when New Barbarians' encounter the Old World. Reissue.
Mark Twain (born Samuel Langhorne Clemens, 1835-1910) was allowed to mock society in his uniquely cutting and witty manner. This contains twelve of his popular short stories, including amusing and sceptical ones, such as the "Campaign that Failed", "Extracts from Adam's Diary" and "Eve's Diary", or the notorious "Jumping Frog".
