I agree that these are important years. I keep trying to write about  the
ethos I sense in these years and cannot tonight find the  words. But the
"feel"
of Twain at this period of his  life only makes sense as I look back at the
life he'd lived and brought to  this place; and the reverse is true too. It
is an
essential closure on his  life.

I want to know more about his "Angelfish" among other things.
