Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910).

A Note on Mark Twain

Mark Twain's real nam e was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. He was born in Florida, Missouri, USA in 1835. In 1839 he and his family went to live in Hannibal, Missouri, a town on the Mississippi River. Young Samuel grew up there, and as a boy he had many adventures on the river. He began working as a steamboat 1 pilot on the Mississippi in 1857, but in 1861 he went to the West. He traveled to Nevada and then to California.

In San Francisco, California, he began working as a journalist for the Morning Call. Here he changed his name to Mark Twain. In 1865 he wrote the short story, "The C elebrated Jum ping Frog of Calaveras County". It was a great success and Mark Twain became a famous writer. He traveled to many places in the world. He married Olivia "Livy" Langdon and had three daughters, and the family lived in Hartford, Connecticut. Here he wrote his three great novels, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876), Life on the Mississippi (1883) and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884). People everywhere liked his humorous style and satire. His other novels are The Innocents Abroad (1869), Roughing It (1872), The Prince and the Pauper (1880), A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and many short stories.

Mark Twain died in 1910. He was seventy-four years old.
