内容简介

A humorist, narrator, and social observer, Mark Twain is unsurpassed in American literature. Best known as the author of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain, not unlike his protagonist, Huck, has a restless spirit. He found adventure prospecting for silver in Nevada, navigating steamboats down the Mississippi, and making people laugh around the world. But Twain also had a serious streak and decried racism and injustice. His fascinating life is captured candidly in this enjoyable biography.

作者简介

April Jones Prince is an author and former children's book editor who especially loves writing about inspiring moments and people from American History.

John O'Brien (May 21, 1960 – April 10, 1994) was an American author. His first novel Leaving Las Vegas was published in 1990 by Watermark Press and made into a film of the same name in 1995.

O'Brien was born in Oxford, Ohio, where his parents, Bill and Judy O'Brien, were both students at Miami University. He was the brother of writer Erin O'Brien. John grew up in Brecksville and Lakewood, Ohio, and graduated from Lakewood High School in 1978. He married Lisa Kirkwood in 1979; and the couple moved to Los Angeles, California, in 1982. His first novel, Leaving Las Vegas, is dedicated to her.

Through a friend of his ex-wife, O'Brien got a gig writing Episode 37 of the animated series Rugrats, “Toys in the Attic”, which premiered in 1992 under his only known pseudonym, Carroll Mine. According to his sister, Erin, he was unhappy with editorial changes made to his script. [1]

O'Brien committed suicide by gunshot two weeks after learning that his novel, Leaving Las Vegas, was to be made into a movie. His father says that the novel was his suicide note. Two more of his novels were published posthumously: Stripper Lessons (Grove Press, 1997) and The Assault on Tony's (Grove Press, 1996), which had been left unfinished at the time of his death and were completed by his sister, Erin.[1] A third manuscript, Better, was published by Akashic Press in 2009.
