It would be nice if a reader could be found who was able to duplicate the accents of outstate Missouri. I have heard several nondescript fellows, white-suited and cigared, go through an imitation of Hal Holbrook doing Mark Twain, but have never heard one that sounded like he came from these parts. Most of the Twain imitators seem content to do a vague drawl and leave it at that. The recordings I have heard on Caedmon--Ed Begley and Will Geer reading Twain, dont seem quite right. Dick Cavett has done a recording of Huckleberry Finn, but he is Nebraskan by way of NYC, not Missourian. Ted Ficklen University of Missouri - St Louis
