Price: $6.22
Customer Review:
Mark Twain was an inspiring writer, speaker, and philosopher whose words are of immense value. This book provides a collection of his most famous quotations categorized for your convenience.

| | 2. | [no image] | The Stolen White Elephant
from Quill Pen Classics
Price: $4.95
Customer Review:
Mark Twain gave advice to a young man who wanted to be a writer: "When you catch an adjective, ill it. No, I don't mean that utterly, but kill the most of them - then the rest will be valuable. They weaken when they are close together, they give strength whenthe are wide apart. An adjective-habit,... more info

from HarperStudio
Price: $3.79
Customer Review:
I absolutely love Mark Twain... his way w/ words, and his stories of the human psyche.
But I'm disappointed w/ this book. It is Mark Twain rambling... perhaps experimenting or testing his writing skills & ideas & thoughts.
Before buying this one, go to the library & borrow the... more info

from Quill Pen Classics
Price: $4.95
Customer Review:
None have mastered the pithy wisdom of Mark Twain and it is nowhere more powerful than his short stories. From the tales of bad little boys that teach us the source of integrity, to the diaries of Adam and Eve that give us great insight in male-female relations long before the self-help flood of the... more info

| | 7. |  | Mark Twain: A Life
from Free Press
Price: $6.40
Customer Review:
This book COULD have been great. Biographies are my favorite genre and I've read a bunch of them - this one falls pretty flat. The author's biases are so clearly obvious he's almost a presence in the book himself, which is distracting even if you agree with his views, and irritating if you don't.... more info

| | 10. |  | Roughing It (Signet Classics)
from Signet Classics
Price: $3.71
Customer Review:
It is hard to remember the last fiction book I enjoyed this much. This book is the chuckles of an old-timer looking back on himself as a "newbie." Much of it is funny, pure funny, and the rest is wonderful to read.
I relished it slowly, about a chapter at a time, and it took me the summer to... more info
