Thanks for the clarification, Bob. I'm looking forward to "Who Is Mark
Twain."

"The Privilege of the Grave" was a decent read, but to my mind Twain said
the same thing shorter and better elsewhere -- "It is by the goodness of God
that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom
of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice
either."
