1. Mark Twain

2. "Mark Twain" was also one of the most frequently photographed people in the nineteenth century (some have said THE most photographed). Throughout this site are many of these photos, some familiar, some very rare.

3. Several dozen of MT's letters can also be "seen" throughout the site. Twelve of them are gathered together in an interactive exhibit that displays the many different names Sam Clemens and Mark Twain used to identify themselves.

4. "100'S OF ILLUSTRATIONS!" That's what MT's contemporary readers knew they would find in each of his popular books. These pictures played a major role in shaping the way MT's texts were read. In this site are hundreds of illustrations too, including hundreds from the various publications of MT's work. The one at left, by True Williams, is the first glimpse readers had of Huck Finn.
