The Great Short Works of Mark Twain by Samuel Clemens


This book was a birthday present from Brea and Ben.  I can not tell you how much I really enjoyed reading it.  I like reading books that are really well written, and Mark Twain was a master word smith.  In a compilation like this, I also got to see the development of him, meaning his philosophy.  In his early carrer he was quite a humorist, but as he aged he got more philosophical and downright mystical. 

I just have to say thank you to my kids for such a great gift.  It put a smile on my face.  I alway recommend Mark Twain.
