The Great American

He is american. He has the idealism of
America-the humor, the kindness, the reaching
toward bigger thing, the simplicity. In his work
we find all things, from the ridiculous in "Huckle-
berry Finn to the sublime of Joan of Arc, the
most spiritual book that was ever written in the
English language, of serene and lovely beauty
as lofty as Joan herself. A man vino could write
two such books as "Huckleberry Finn and
Joan of Arc was sublime in power. His youth
and his laughter are eternal; his genius will never
die.

New-York tribune., 1918-12-01

We had to be told first by English writer's
that Mark Twain was incomparably great; that in
the last half of the nineteenth and in the twentieth
century he was not only tie greatest of American
writer's, but the greatest prose writer that
lived in any part of the world. He was so far
ahead of his time that he surprised the people
by views that seemed to them radical Today we
have come around to his thinking, and he has
been proven right

They say that children know the nwar.lness

child knows the heart of book We as children
mstinctvely knew Mark Twain was so much
greater, so much truer than anybody else that
there was no one to compare him with.
Now, grown up, know the reason why

master, SO simple that neither art nor technique
was even suspected for a moment; character SO
splendid that the reading of him was clear and
fine.
