Take the following as truth: It contains many photographs of writers, some quite early; these enliven the appearance of the book but accomplish little else, unless one is interested in what Samuel Clemens looked like at the age of 15 (as a printer's devil) or in the appearance of Hart Crane standing in the middle of a railroad track in Cleveland in 1916.
Then the following statement: "Samuel Clemens and Hart Crane were both very handsome people." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: False
