Life on the Mississippi by Mark Twain

(used, hardcover)
 
A stirring account of America's vanished past...
The book that earned Mark Twain his first recognition as a serious writer... 

Discover the magic of life on the Mississippi. 

At once a romantic history of a mighty river, an autobiographical account of Mark Twain's early steamboat days, and a storehouse of humorous anecdotes and sketches, Life on the Mississippi is the raw material from which Twain wrote his finest novel: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn .
