Mark Twain's Mississippi

Mark Twain, born Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was an American author who drew on his childhood along the Mississippi River to create masterpieces of humor and sarcasm, including Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

Mark Twain's Mississippi provides a fully searchable and indexed digital library of some of Twain's publications, placing special emphasis upon his Mississippi novels and reminiscences. These works serve as lenses through which the public may explore additional text, image and sound materials, drawn from the participating libraries, describing the Mississippi Valley that Mark Twain remembered and imagined in writing his classic works of literature.
