Mark Twain. Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910), [1] well known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American author and humorist.Twain is noted for his novels Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), which has been called the "Great American Novel," and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876).
During that period, Twain returned to New York four times due to his enduring business troubles. Twain rented "a cheap room" in September 1893 at $1.50 per day (equivalent to $51 in 2023) at The Players Club, which he had to keep until March 1894; meanwhile, Twain became "the Belle of New York", in the words of biographer Albert Bigelow Paine.
A similar project was proposed later, resulting in the 1908 collaborative work The Whole Family, though Twain declined the offer to participate. [2] The scheme for "A Murder, a Mystery, and a Marriage" failed, and Twain was the only one to flesh out the plot. The resulting manuscript remained unpublished until it was purchased by Lew D. Feldman.
In the first printed issue of the novel, the word 'Decides' was misprinted as 'Decided', and the word 'saw' is mistyped as 'was' on page 57.
