Mark Twain Audio Books
|
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, aka Mark Twain, is the quintessential American writer and humorist, known for his irreverence and biting social satire. His Mississippi boyhood, travels abroad, riverboat pilot work, and journalistic days in the West inspired sardonic classics that serve as a strong challenge to humankind to be better, "as against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand."
Born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri, Twain moved with his family at the age of four to Hannibal, Missouri, a quaint, picturesque port on the Mississippi that became the basis for the fictionalized setting of Twain's two great American classics, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

We're proud to say that Twain was once a resident of California Gold Country (home to our Audio Editions offices and warehouse). He was a complete unknown when he took as job writing for the San Francisco Call and eventually became the most famous celebrity of the gold rush era when the publication of a fanciful story about a frog jumping contest in nearby Calaveras County thrust him into the national spotlight. |
