Selling seventy five thousand copies within a year of its publication in 1872, Roughing It was greeted as a work of "wild, preposterous invention and sublime exaggeration" whose satiric humor made "pretension and false dignity ridiculous." Meticulously restored from a variety of original sources, the text is the first to adhere to the author's wishes in thousands of details of wording, spelling, and punctuation, and includes all of the 304 first-edition illustrations. With its comprehensive and illuminating notes and supplementary materials, which include detailed maps tracing Mark Twain's western travels, this Mark Twain Library Roughing It must be considered the standard edition for readers and students of Mark Twain.Mark Twain LibraryAuthors, AmericanHomes and hauntsWest (U.S.)West (U.S.)Description and travelWest (U.S.)Intellectual life19th centuryAuthors, AmericanHomes and haunts917.8042Twain Mark1835-1910.27404Williams True1582761Mullenfl. 1859-1872.1582762Smith Harriet Elinor1489472Branch Edgar Marquess1913-2006.784150Bancroft Library.Mark Twain Project.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781631303321Roughing it3865381UNINA
