Mark Twain
Say hello to Mark Twain, the Mississippi maestro, born in 1835. With a pen as sharp as a riverboat gambler's wit, he crafted tales that have floated down the river of American literature for over a century. From the mischievous Tom Sawyer to the free-spirited Huckleberry Finn, his characters embody the spirit of adventure and the thirst for freedom. Twain: the man who taught us that "The Adventures of" life are best navigated with humor, and that truth is indeed "stranger than fiction." All aboard for a journey with America's most beloved literary humorist!
