Mark Twain A to Z: The Essential Reference to His Life and Writings (Literary A to Z)
The arrangement of entries in an alphabetic rather than topic- oriented format is clumsy, but this reference contains a great deal of information related to Twain's life and work in clearly written brief essays. The entries include written works--with synopses and summaries of publishing history; analytical discussions of characters; and identification of key people, places, and events in Twain's business, literary, and personal life. A chronology in tabular form displays year-by-year activities with regard to residence and travel, personal and business affairs, literary output, family and friends, and literary and historical events. Includes some bandw illustrations. 8.75x11.25" Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
