Hello from the Elmira College Center for Mark Twain Studies! This year marks the 100th anniversary of Mark Twain's last world-wide lecture tour. Clemens, along with wife Olivia and daughter Clara, left Elmira and Quarry Farm in July and then then traveled from city to city across the northern United States and Southern Canada before departing across the Pacific to Australia and beyond. This long and arduous journey by boat and train across the North American continent is documented through the pictures and journal of James B. Pond in the Center's publication: Overland with Mark Twain. This scholarly and accessible publication also contains a preface from co-editor Nick Karanovich and an Introduction and textual notes from co-editor Alan Gribben.
