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.

Hartford Museum Purchases Barrels Full of Twain's Old Books

(free registration required for use of the online edition)

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