This is the day upon which we are reminded of what we are on the other three hundred and sixty four.'' ''I was seldom able to see an opportunity until it had ceased to be one.''
Quotes are complemented by fascinating black-and-white images throughout, such as photographs of Twain before his home in Hannibal, Missouri, at home in Hartford, Connecticut, at a birthday dinner at Delmonico's, at his billiards table, etc., plus a photo of his steamboat pilot's certificate, and more.
