Sobre este artículo
Webster Groves, MO: International Mark Twain Society, 1934. Hardcover. Foreword by Patrick Braybrooke. Small 8vo. Burgundy cloth with gilt lettering, dust jacket. x, 56pp. Frontispiece, 2 illustrations. Fine/very good. Jacket a bit rubbed and edgeworn, with spine age toned. Sharp, tight first edition of Clemens' brief interviews discussing Twain with Mussolini, Bernard Shaw, John Galsworthy, Andre Maurois, G.K. Chesterton, John Drinkwater and Franklin D. Roosevelt. This self-styled "nephew" of Mark Twain was actually his third cousin, twice removed, but made a career of editing and publishing sentimental, scholarly questionable works about Samuel Clemens such as "Gold Rush Days with Mark Twain" (1930), "My Cousin Mark Twain" (1939), "Young Sam Clemens" (1942) and this 1934 production, along with editing the "Mark Twain Quarterly" he established in 1936 and founding the International Mark Twain Society in 1927.
