A Neat Find at Goodwill
The book is Edward Connery Lathem (ed.), *Mark Twain's Four
Weeks in England 1907* (Mark Twain House & Museum, Hartford, CT, 2006), 10.5H x 8.1W, 226 p., in unread condition, paste on cartoon from Punch on the front cover. It chronicles Twain's trip in June and July 1907 to England to receive an honorary doctorate from Oxford. The research appears comprehensive. It seems that every newspaper article in the US and UK during that time is reproduced here, along with anything Twain said, together with all the photographs and newspaper cartoons and caricatures that could be found. The editor has an essay at the start of each section setting the context for what follows. -- Francis A. Miniter In dem Lande der Pygmäen gibt es keine Uniformen, weder Abzeichen, noch irgend welche Normen, Und Soldaten sind dort nicht zu sehen. Siegfried von Vegesack, "Es gibt keine Uniformen" from In dem Lande der Pygmäen |
