Dirk Hagner: "Mark Twain, the great humorist and keen observer of the 'lowest animal', one of the treasures of American literature, is the subject of this artist book. A large original reduction color woodcut portrait of him is featured on its pages. "Of course, Mark Twain was only his nom de plume, his real name was Samuel Longhorne Clemens. A page in the book shows his penned 'SLC' initials with which he often signed his correspondence. "There are so many marvelous quotes by Twain. Three of them are used throughout the book’s structure.”
