Sorry for spamming your inboxs, but perhaps the third time (from my other email account) is the trick. I’m designing an advanced undergraduate seminar on Mark Twain. I want to include a critical biography, and after some research, I am currently considering assigning the 2005 Ron Powers biography _Mark Twain: A Life_. I’m curious what biographies others recommend (and perhaps why). Thanks, Tim P.S. Oddly, my messages made it onto the form archives without transmogrification into gibberish. < https://listserv.yorku.ca/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1611&L=twain-l&T=0&P=7245>
