Dear Twain Community,
I’m putting together an advanced undergraduate seminar on Mark Twain. I want to include a critical biography, and after some research, I am currently considering assigning the 2005 Ron Powers biography _Mark Twain: A Life_. I’m curious what biographies others recommend (and perhaps why).
Thanks,
Tim
