Author(s): Mark Twain

Folio Society | Secondhand

Secondhand. A selection of sketches, essays and short stories by Mark Twain, chosen by Roy Blount Jr.

As fellow humorist Roy Blount, Jr. writes in the Introduction, "I put it to you simply that the most impressive thing about Mark Twain is, he is still funny".

Contents include The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County, Taming The Bicycle, A Touching Story of George Washington's Boyhood, and other great stories.

Fine except for a minor black spot on the front endpaper.
