Praise for Volume 1 It feels like a form of time travel. One moment you're on horseback in the Hawaiian islands -- or recovering from saddle boils with a cigar in your mouth -- and the next moment you're meeting the Viennese maid he called, in a private joke, 'Wuthering Heights.' We can hardly wait for Volume 2.-- New York Times Twain's autobiography, finally available after a century, is a garrulous outpouring--and every word beguiles.-- Wall Street Journal I start reading Twain's Autobiography at any page and don't want to stop, for the sheer voluptuous pleasure of the prose.-- Roger Ebert
