&;[Twain] was, in the phrase of his friend William Dean Howells, &;the Lincoln of our literature&;... At the heart of his work lies that greatest of all American qualities: irreverence.&; &; Washington Post
&;More than 100 years after [Twain] wrote these stories, they remain not only remarkably funny but remarkably modern.... Ninety-nine years after his death, Twain still manages to get the last laugh.&; &; Vanity Fair
Who Is Mark Twain? is a collection of twenty six wickedly funny, thought-provoking essays by Samuel Langhorne Clemens&;aka Mark Twain&;none of which have ever been published before, and all of which are completely contemporary, amazingly relevant, and gut-bustingly hilarious.
