About the author

Mark Twain was the pen name of Samuel L. Clemens, who was born in 1835. His folksy humor and regional realism grew out of his childhood in Missouri along the Mississippi River. He came to be known as the Father of American Literature for his satirical comedy in short stories, novels, and essays that give us an unflinching look at the rapidly changing world of the nineteenth century.
