Mark Twain #1 on Amazon

in Books, e-books, Literature | October 17th, 2010 1 Comment

The Autobiography of Mark Twain (Vol. 1) hit the stands just yesterday, and already it stands atop the Amazon bestseller list, leapfrogging past Stieg Larsson, Bill Bryson, Jon Stewart, and even the latest, supposedly greatest American novelist, Jonathan Franzen. Although he died a century again, Twain has still got it.

The 766 page autobiography published by UC Press runs $18.99 in hardcover on Amazon, and the Kindle version a far cooler $9.99. You can read excerpts in PDF format here and here. Meanwhile you can also find free versions of Twain’s classics – Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer – in our collections of Free Audio Books and Free eBooks.
