Hal, I knew of two from my own collecting: The first and best is Milton Meltzer's "Mark Twain Himself," Crowell, 1960. The second book was kind of an oddity - "Mark Twain in the Movies," by John Seelye, Viking, 1977. Odd because, among other things, it is rather negative. It did, however, have a wealth of pictures. I followed up on OCLC, which displays pretty much every book every published in America. I didn't see anything else to dethrone the Meltzer book. Terry Ballard Librarian on patrol From: Hal Bush [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Tuesday, April 11, 2000 3:11 PM There is a really swell volume of pictures/photos of Abe Lincoln, ed. by Holzer and Neely, called _The Lincoln Image_. I am trying to locate anything similar for our friend Mark Twain and I am failing. Now it dawns on me that this would really fill a gap in Twain scholarship. Any suggestions? Does such a volume exist?? I need some ideas in particular about how Twain was "pictured" here and esp. abroad during the last couple decades of his life (post Huck Finn). thanks, --Hal Bush **=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=** Dr. Harold K.
