Publisher's Synopsis
The most complete edition of Twain's two stories, it uses Mark Twain's preferred text and includes passages not previously included--and not available in any other version. The editor's afterword tells how Twain came to write the Diaries, which are recognized today as his most personal works of fiction.
Funny? Yes. And you expect that from Twain. But this is also a love story... --Birmingham Weekly, May 1999
The sort of book that makes for deeply satisfying reading... one of the great love stories of all time. --The Mark Twain Forum, January 1999
