The author

Mark Twain (1835-1910) is the pseudonym ofSamuel Langhorne Clemens. Best known as a novelist – The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), Tom Sawyer (1876), and A Conneticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court(1889) are among his most famous – Twain also worked as a typesetter, ariverboat pilot, a miner, a reporter, and an editor. His early writings reflecthis pre-Civil War upbringing in their idyllic images as well as in theirreminders of some of America’s least acceptable social realities. Twain spenthis life observing and reporting on his surroundings, and his work provides aglimpse into the mind-set of the late nineteenth century. “Corn-Pone Opinions”,which was found in his papers after his death, was first published in 1923 in Europe and Elsewhere.
