Recenzii

“In his lifetime, Mark Twain was perhaps as renowned for his public speaking as he was for his writing. . . . Since we, unfortunately, have no recordings of what he said, the speeches themselves are invaluable---and Fatout’s book is an incredible collection of what has survived.”---John C. Bird, editor, The Mark Twain Annual
