Is Shakespeare Dead? From My Autobiography explores the controversy over the authorship of the Shakespearean literary canon via satire, anecdote, and extensive quotation of contemporary authors on the subject.

About the author

Twain’s river books look like boyhood adventures and keep turning into arguments about conscience, fraud, and American speech. Huckleberry Finn is the one that refuses a tidy moral. More of this shelf for Mark Twain.
