Praise for Volume 1

"It feels like a form of time travel. One moment you're on horseback in the Hawaiian islands -- or recovering from saddle boils with a cigar in your mouth -- and the next moment you're meeting the Viennese maid he called, in a private joke, 'Wuthering Heights.' We can hardly wait for Volume 2."-- New York Times

"Twain's autobiography, finally available after a century, is a garrulous outpouring--and every word beguiles."-- Wall Street Journal

"I start reading Twain's Autobiography at any page and don't want to stop, for the sheer voluptuous pleasure of the prose."-- Roger Ebert
