  • "Composed between 1863 and 1875, these sixty-three often outrageous sketches prove indispensable to our understanding of Twain during thirteen quite amazing years in American history."@en
  • "This collection of 63 writings by Mark Twain was published in 1875. Among other sketches, it contains "The Jumping Frog" in the original English, followed by a French translation which Twain re-translated into English, showing how the French translation of his work was "badly flawed." In many of these sketches, Twain shows his talent for outrageous and hilarious inventiveness, often in reaction to current events."@en
