I think this is a case of a publisher pushing Mark Twain's name off on an
unsuspecting public.  As Kevin Mac Donnell would call it -- the present
fairy tale is a "Twain't."   I think there is a lot more to the
"oleomargarine" connection and its influence on Twain's later works.  I am
looking forward to John Bird's scholarly interpretation along with the
publication of the full manuscript.
