Reviews
"Certainly one of the most reliable and readable books in the whole huge library of Twain biographical studies. Hill makes sense of a confusing and often contradictory set of data. This is a notable, graceful, convincing book." - "New Republic" "Fills a great, long-standing need for a thoroughly researched book about Mark Twain's twilight years.... Splendidly, grippingly written and excellently documented.... Likely to be a standard work for as long as anyone can foresee." - "Choice"
