The Philosophy of Mark Twain

Mark Twain (actually the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens) was one of the best known and most unique authors of the 19th century. It is for very good reasons that his works have remained popular since his death in 1910. It is perhaps the timelessness of his humour that made Twain such a unique character of his time. Much of what he said and wrote appeals as much to the society of today as of his own era; some would argue even more so. This book brings together some of the most amusing, interesting and thought-provoking comments from this literary genius.
