Beschreibung

Samuel Langhorne Clements (1835-1910), well known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist. Twain is noted for his novels, “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” (1884) which has been called the “Great American Novel,” and “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” *1876). He also wrote poetry, short stories, essays, and non-fiction. His travel books included “The Innocents Abroad” (1869) and “A Tramp Abroad” (1880). His book, “Europe and Elsewhere” is a collection of essays by Mark Twain that was edited by Albert Bigelow Paine, Twain's literary estate agent and biographer, and published posthumously in 1923. Essays in this volume, including The War Prayer (1905), a short story indicting war; The United States of Lyncherdom (1901), an essay against the mass lynching in Pierce City, Missouri; To the Person Sitting in Darkness (1901), a satiric essay expressing Twain's anti-imperialistic views; and thirty-two other essays make this book an unique collectors' item for Mark Twain aficionados, literary historians, and readers of American literature.
