Twain enthusiasts-

The new look _Mark Twain Annual_ arrived today, and I'm impressed.  Penn State University Press is the new publisher, and their design is attractive, and more importantly the contents are terrific.  Excellent articles, notes, and book reviews.  Kudos to Ann Ryan for the work she's done as editor for the last six years, taking up the role from John Bird, who set a rather high bar for Ann to clear.   Ann's now passing the baton to Chad Rohman, who will no doubt carry on the tradition of excellent work.

With gratitude,
