Size: 8x2x10; Complete 3 Volume Set. Bound in quarter black cloth with cream paper boards. and gilt text on the spine. Volume 1 is the third printing, and Volumes 2 and 3 are first printings. "I've struck it! " Mark Twain wrote in a 1904 letter to a friend. "And I will give it away-to you. You will never know how much enjoyment you have lost until you get to dictating your autobiography." Thus, after dozens of false starts and hundreds of pages, Twain embarked on his "Final (and Right) Plan" for telling the story of his life. His innovative notion-to "talk only about the thing which interests you for the moment"-meant that his thoughts could range freely. The strict instruction that many of these texts remain unpublished for 100 years meant that when they came out, he would be "dead, and unaware, and indifferent, " and that he was therefore free to speak his "whole frank mind." The year 2010 marks the 100th anniversary of Twain's death. In celebration of this important milestone and in honor of the cherished tradition of publishing Mark Twain's works, UC Press is proud to offer for the first time Mark Twain's uncensored autobiography in its entirety and exactly as he left it. This major literary event brings to readers, admirers, and scholars the first of three volumes and presents Mark Twain's authentic and unsuppressed voice, brimming with humor, ideas, and opinions, and speaking clearly from the grave as he intended. Vol. 1 xix 736pp. Vol. 2 xix 733pp. Vol. 3 xix 747pp. Pictorial dustjackets with B&W portraits of Mark Twain. Vol. 1 has a red spine, vol. 2 has a green spine, and vol. 3 has a blue spine. CONDITION: Light shelf wear. Volume 3 has a dent on the center top edge of the covers other volumes fine. Pages are crisp and clean. Bindings and text blocks are tight. Small repaired tear and creasing at the top edge of Vol. 3 other volumes fine. Full refund if not satisfied.

Mark Twain's (Burlesque) Autobiography and First Romance

- Publisher: Sheldon & Company
First edition, second issue of Twain's third book with the Ball, Black, & Co. advertisement on verso of the title page (BAL 3326). Octavo, bound in three quarters morocco over marbled boards, gilt titles to the spine, illustrated and extra-illustrated with a tissue-guarded engraved frontispiece of Twain. In good condition. Mark Twain's (Burlesque) Autobiography and First Romance contains two short stories: "A Burlesque Autobiography", which first appeared in Twain's ten-page Memoranda contributions to Galaxy Magazine, and "First Romance", which initially appeared in The Express in 1870. The two stories bear no actual relationship to Twain's life, but rather present fictional characters that are supposedly part of his lineage. The illustrations throughout both stories have no relationship to the text, but are cartoons that illustrate the children's poem The House that Jack Built, a social commentary the Erie Railroad Ring and its participants, Jay Gould, John T. Hoffman, and Jim Fisk.

Two Vols. Introduction by Albert Bigelow Paine. Fasinating material originally written by Twain in 1906. This is an excellent copy of the second printing, printed shortly after the first printing. The interiors of both volumes are clean, no marks of any kind. The hinges and all signatures are tight. There is no foxing. The gold gilt on the front covers and spines of each volume remains bright. The gold gilt on the top page edges is also bright. There is modest shelf rubbing to the edges of the boards.
