Brent, most certainly it would be of interest here, as would any period of
the man's life. Judging by the steady stream of orders for my book, there is
interest in anything to do with Samuel Clemens. Let me know if I can be of
any help, though it's going to be awhile before I get to the Angelfish
period--I'm aiming at beating Hirst and the MTP in their completion of the
Autobiography work. (2010 or 11 give or take a decade).

And while on the subject of angelfish, Tom Tenny tells me that John Cooley,
editor of MT's Aquarium, is "missing"--that is, no one seems to be able to
contact him. If you know of his whereabouts, please let me or Tom know.
John? are you out there? Thanks,
