Quarry Farm Papers #5

Ethical Records of Twain & His Circle of Sagebrush Journalists

By Lawrence I. Berkove

The series, Quarry Farm Papers, is a publication of the Elmira College
Center
for Mark Twain Studies.  The series makes available works of primary
importance to Mark Twain Studies by scholars who have participated in
programs at the Center.

Ethical Records of Twain and His Circle of Sagebrush Journalists  was
presented in March 1993 to launch the Spring Lecture Series under the
auspices of the Distinguished Academic Visitors Program.  Lawrence I.
Berkove
is a professor of English and the Director of the American Studies Program
at
the University of Michigan-Dearborn.  He has written a number of essays on
Twain's religious ideas and their interpretive applications to Huckleberry
Finn, Connecticut Yankee, and Roughing It.  In addition to Twain, he has
also
published widely on nineteenth and early twentieth-century American
literature, particularly the Western authors Ambrose Bierce, Jack London,
and
Dan DeQuille and his fellow Sagebrush authors.  In recent years, Dr. Berkove
has been actively engaged in bringing to light lost, forgotten, and
unpublished works of the Sagebrushers.  It has been his endeavor to replace
the neglect of this group of talented writers with a new appreciation of
their important contribution to our national culture.
