There is a good article in today's NY Times about the books the
Twain House purchased at the auction in California a week or two ago.
Includes comments by Alan Gribben, David Sloane and John Boyer, and
a few examples of marginalia from the books themselves.

If anyone has a list of the books that were bought, could it be
posted here? Thanks.
