The Autobiography of Mark Twain by Mark Twain (good book recommendations .TXT) π
Description
The Autobiography of Mark Twain is a collection of reminiscences and reflections. Twain began dictating them in 1870, and in 1906 he published Chapters from My Autobiography in twenty-five installments in the North American Review. He continued to write stories for his autobiography, most of which werenβt published in his lifetime due to a lack of access to his papers, or their private subject matters. After Twainβs death, numerous editors have tried to organize this collection of published and unpublished autobiographical works, producing various differing editions. The most recent attempt is by the Mark Twain Project at the University of California, Berkeley, which published a three-volume edition; but, through what many consider legal trickery, the University of California, Berkeley has claimed copyright on that edition until 2047β137 years after Twainβs death.
This Standard Ebooks production is based on Harper and Brothersβ 1924 collection, compiled by Albert Bigelow Paine.
