This beautiful volume, illustrated with 30 new images by master engraver Barry Moser, gathers writings from the full span of Mark Twain's career and elucidates his special attachment to and regard for animals. What may surprise even longtime readers and fans is that Twain was an early and ardent animal welfare advocate, the most prominent American of his day to take up that cause. Edited and selected by Shelley Fisher Fishkin, who has also supplied an introduction and afterword, Mark Twain's Book of Animals includes stories that are familiar along with those that are appearing in print for the first time.Jumping Frogs: Undiscovered, Rediscovered, and Celebrated Writings of Mark TwainAnimal behaviorAnecdotesAmerican wit and humorAnimal rights19th century american literature.adventures.american literature.animal kingdom.animal welfare advocate.animals.entertaining.father of american literature.great gift.huck kills a bird.human inadequacies.humanity.humorist.integral animals.jim smiley and his jumping frog.jumping frogs undiscovered rediscovered and celebrated writings of mark twain.morality lessons.optimism.pilgrims on horseback.unique voice.united states of america.Animal behaviorAmerican wit and humor.Animal rights.818/.409Twain Mark1835-1910.27404Fishkin Shelley Fisher547913Bancroft Library.Mark Twain Project.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780638503321Mark Twain's book of animals3840562UNINA
