description: Mark Twain is best known for Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer. But he possessed more than a flair for fiction. These stories, essays, and sketches present Twain at his most vitriolic. "The Damned Human Race" proves that a snake is a higher life form than an English earl, and "Papers of the Adam Family" is a sardonic look at the Bible's first couple.
