I'm happy to see the Mark Twain Project receiving notices as widely as possible. I also applaud the Forum for its efforts to generate support in the variety of ways that it has. I would, though, like to remind all Forum members that in addition to direct donations and purchases of books and paraphrenalia, those of us who teach have another avenue of helping the Mark Twain Project: adopting the Mark Twain Library editions in our courses (available from University of California Press). These texts are derived from the authoritative scholarly editions, though they appropriately omit the scholarly apparatus. They contain all of the original illustrations, include explanatory notes, are printed on good quality paper, and are bound in cloth or paper. Surprisingly, they are very affordable. In short, these volumes are high quality at a modest price. And perhaps the best reason to adopt them in your courses is that that they generate money that subsidizes the work of the Mark Twain Project. Many of you may already be aware of this series and regularly adopt them in your courses. But I've been surprised at the number of university and college teachers I've met who don't even know about them, or who do but adopt Signet or Norton editions because they assume that the Mark Twain Library editions are too expensive. They don't cost significantly more, and in terms of value they are a much wiser expenditure. Since the Mark Twain Library series gives us the opportunity to to put better texts in our students hands and to support the Mark Twain Project simultaneously, why would we adopt any other text? Either paper or clothbound, they make great gifts, too. Larry Howe For the record, I am not an employee of UC Press, though perhaps I should be. I don't think they've promoted this series as much as I've just done in this short posting.
