Mark Twain's Helpful Hints for Good Living: A Handbook for the Damned Human Race

Mark Twain

University of California Press, 2004

"Etiquette requires us to respect the human race"
Mark Twain in his writing very often surprises us and makes us laugh. His greatest gift is his humor. And the wisdom he provides on various aspects of daily living however sarcastic and cynical it may seem at times is grounded in a sane realistic view of humanity.

Letters From The Earth

Mark Twain

NuVision Publications, 2008

STILL HAVE IT!
I have a had an old paperback copy of this for 20 years now, so this copy is just a "newer version". I fell in love with MT as a result of this work that I originally read in 1984, and have not taken religion, or anything about it seriously since! It doesn't get any ...

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Signet Classics)

Mark Twain

Signet Classics, 2002

Nietzsche's choice
In a letter to his friend Franz Overbeck dated 14, November, 1879, Nietzsche says, "If you do not know the latest book by Twain, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, it would be a pleasure for me to make you a little present of it." Both novels define the picturesque ...

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Puffin Classics)
Mark Twain

Puffin, 2008

Revered by all of the town's children and dreaded by all of its mothers, Huckleberry Finn is indisputably the most appealing child-hero in American literature. Unlike the tall-tale, idyllic world of Tom Sawyer, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is firmly grounded in early reality. From the abusive drunkard who serves as Huckleberry's father, to ...

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Mark Twain

Prestwick House Inc., 2005

Eli Sashihara writes:
Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a timeless classic that lives up to its prestigious name. It takes place in an array of locations along the Mississippi river around the time of 1835-45. The story is about Tom, a free-spirited boy, and his numerous ...

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Penguin Classics)

Mark Twain

Penguin Classics, 2006

A Timeless Classic
If you are a boy, or once was a boy, you will remember the days of mischief described in this book. This is a timeless classic that I will always treasure. If you enjoy this book you will also enjoy: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Treasure Island.

Joan of Arc

Mark Twain

Ignatius Press, 1989

Beautiful and haunting
How amazing it is to find the usually sardonic, faithless Twain so moved to write a work as glorifying, uplifting and devoted as this novel! In fact, I read this book just to find out what Twain's angle might be. There is no angle, no slant to the story. It is told ...

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Unabridged Classics)

Mark J. Twain

Sterling, 2004

The Greatest American of All?
It being the Fourth of July, or Small Explosives Day as I call it (training kids early to think bombs are fun can pay off with trillions of tax dollars, no questions asked), I am reminded of my favorite American, Mr. Sam Clemens. I remember it was a hot July day, I ...

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Public Domain, 2007

A True Classic
I am enjoying reading this classic to my son. I read it years ago. By reading this story to him, I am finding myself excited and ready to take on a new adventure. The price is unbelievable, too.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Barnes & Noble Classics Series) (B&N Classics)

Mark J. Twain

Barnes & Noble Classics, 2005

Loved it
I've read the book before but the Barnes and Noble version has all these extra info that help you understand and analyze the story better. Great buy.

Mark Twain : Mississippi Writings : Tom Sawyer, Life on the Mississippi, Huckleberry Finn, Pudd'nhead Wilson ...

Mark Twain

Library of America, 1982

Pudd'nhead Wilson Specifically
Pudd'nhead Wilson is, in my opinion, Mark Twain's most underappreciated book. It's a "mystery" in structure, so I don't intend to summarize the story at all. It's also Twain's most powerful assessment of the effects of slavery and racism in America, but once again I ...

Great American Short Stories (Dover Thrift Editions)

Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, ...

Dover Publications, 2002

Title
This is actually a very good book to have. It was bought for a class in English Literature, but it has some good stories in it. I would be willing to read some of the non-assigned stories from this book. Best part- its a small book.
