Just got back from a visit to Lake Tahoe, Virginia City and Carson City. Really brings this book to life. I was sad to see that the Mark Twain museum had closed down in Virginia City.
Well my goodness, whatever have I found here? A favorite book by a favorite author read by a perfectly suited voice? I must be dreaming, but I'm going to subscribe anyway and hope this treasure still exists in the morning 💗
Can't recall when I didn't like 'Twain'. Introduced to his writing in High School but exposed to hom via movies like Huckle Berry Finn & Tom Sawyer. He had a deep understanding of human nature and the great gift of being able to laugh at himself. His quotes are perfect. Most relevant today.
I could scare my little brother to tears at night just by saying"raw head and bloody bones"it got to where I could only get out "Raw head "and he would start bawling like a little girl.It was grand fun.
Hey 👍 how great to see THIS channel pop up ! Very exciting yes, I see that you've some great content. I look fwd to this listen. Thank you, I haven't heard it. * edit: the time stamps are invaluable. Thanks!
Hi @magicbullet! The heroes of this channel will always be the books, their authors and the people who love them. Thank you very much for your support! 💚
@@spokenwords123 Literary excellent does speak for itself yes. Regardless the genre which appeals, in the domain of audiobook we are subject to the narrator. When we discover a voice that we thrill to we can become fiercely loyal. The first time we are exposed to a new voice that quickens our emotions ... well, that is a most exhilarating experience. For my own self, Mr John Greenman has become a new favorite. I'm always amazed when the person reading the story sounds exactly like the author himself. To my ear, Greenman and the revered Mark Twain are indeed the same gentleman !
As I was a rural mail truck driver for a couple of decades in the 1980's and 90's, I don't think there was a great difference between those times. Only I never had any company.
Moved to the country last summer. This spring, one early in the evening, my Lab allerted me to a 'presence'. It was a lively curious Coyete-Wolf-Dog (becoming very common in Ontario). Looked just like a fox in colour at first glance but the long tail was a fluffy distinctive white . . . and it was as big as my 6 yr old Lab if not larger. Disappered when I reached for my camera. Didn't feel the visitor ws a threat. My Lab was in heat at the time. Worried the two might mate and I'd be saddled with huge extra costs in hound goodies . . . and perhaps a lost of opportunity to develope zn intresting new breed. Anyone else seen these critters ?
I think I misunderstood the sage brush tea reference as in what every boy thinks of it. I'm thinking but of course it's nowadays compared to hither times. Not much of a tea drinker all though spiced chai once in a while. Wasn't Huck into coffee as I'm guessingveveryone was. And being its sage and the story advising it could be a tea. And me seeing a tumbleweed rolling across the desert having someone used its leaves for a tea and just let it go with the wind to bump into someone in some sort of brush advertisement saying yup I make a sweet tea....🤦 Omg, that's where sweet tea comes from. Enough sugar will cover up any taste unwanted. Sugar sagebrush tea. 😆 😵💫😕😐 still no.
With wording slicker than a boweevils eyelids. He's snuck words in to make a sentence cantankerous as to please a welled up guffaw half heartedly but perhaps havIng kept it pent up waiting on a tuther
Very interesting,minus the racial remarks. Mark Twain was enough of a gentleman that if he could read this book today, he would probably be ashamed of that part.

A service to humanity! A romp through an era gone by, through the eyes of a literary genius with a deep, innate understanding of the human condition.
This is a very good narration of an absolute classic . There are not many things I appreciate more.
Well my goodness, whatever have I found here?

Could it have been a dream? ....
Thank you very much for your beautiful words. Merry Christmas!🎁
Twain was not only a very funny man, but also, a very wise one to.
One of my favorite quotes of Mark Twain in wich he said of German humor: " it's no laughing matter"
Dah!

Which adaptation of Huckleberry Finn would you recommend ? I've never watched a movie version but always assumed there were some @@MichaelLeBlanc-p4f
And funny
Wow! My favorite -- and with a worthy narrator! 😃 Thank you.
Thank you so much for uploading and sharing.
Excellent book, with great narrator.
Great book about life trial, tribulations, victory, and wisdoms.
💚
That chair Sam is relaxing on sure looks comfortable .And I had a job trimming sagebush in the Sonoran Desert once.
Awesome book! Best reader for Twain! Thanks! 👍👍❤️
The readers name is John Greenman. He has narrated many Twain books. All on public domain.
@@RockyRacoon123I thought it was Jon Lithgow, but this guy is great
I like how he calls his Mormom wives creatures
Thanks for the audio book, never had access to the hard copy during my growing up.
Thank You Philimon!

The “deadest man alive” makes me giggle every time. So easy to listen to and yet so smart!
