This is a response to Ray Queen's October 20th query to the Forum
about the availability of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
and other out-of-print volumes in The Oxford Mark Twain.  I've just
learned that Oxford plans to bring the OMT edition of  Connecticut
Yankee   back into print in about six weeks. Oxford will  reprint
Connecticut Yankee  and seven other volumes (several of which are
also now out of print) by December lst.  The following eight  OMT
volumes will be available by December both individually and as a set
(they're calling the eight-book set The Best of Mark Twain, it will
sell for $125, and its ISBN # is 0-19-515980-2):
