Mark Twain: The Fate of Humor

In Mark Twain: The Fate of Humor James Cox analyzes the humor of the man known as Mark Twain. Now with a new introduction and an additional essay written as a follow-up to the book, Mark Twain shows all the facets of this complicated lecturer and performer. From the
birth
of Mark Twain to his visions in the 1900s of human existence as a state of slavery, Cox’s work explores the very heart of the man who became the beloved sage of America, pursued by reporters and embraced by his countrymen.
