Autobiography of Mark Twain, Vol. 3

Read by Grover Gardner Affectionate and scathing by turns, Mark Twains intractable curiosity and candor are on full display once again in this third and final volume of his uncensored Autobiography. The surprising final chapter of a great American life. When the first volume of Mark Twains uncensored Autobiography was published in 2010, it was hailed as an essential addition to the shelf of his works and a crucial document for our understanding of the great humorists life and times. This third and final volume crowns and completes his lifes work. Like its companion volumes, it chronicles Twains inner and outer life through a series of daily dictations that go wherever his fancy leads. Created from March 1907 to December 1909, these dictations present Mark Twain at the end of his life receiving an honorary degree from Oxford University railing against Theodore Roosevelt, founding numerous clubs incredulous at an exhibition of the Holy Grail credulous about the authorship of Shakespeares plays relaxing in Bermuda observing and investing in new technologies.
