AUTOBIOGRAPHY:  Mark Twain

He's been called the greatest American writer of all time. His bestselling
novel, "The [sic] Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" — the book, Ernest
Hemingway wrote, from which "all American literature comes" — is still read
by schoolchildren around the world.

At the turn of the last century, Twain was, in his own words, "the most
conspicuous person on the planet," — known throughout the world for his
white suit, his many books, and his side-splitting lectures.

But his latest accomplishment may be his most amazing . . . publishing a NEW
book, his "Autobiography," one hundred years after his death.

CBS News correspondent Jeff Glor will take the measure of Mark Twain, with
the help of the Twain Project, in Berkeley, Calif.; the J. Pierpont Morgan
Museum in New York; and comedian Lewis Black.
