SynopsisLiterary Nonfiction. California Interest. MARK TWAIN'S 88 DAYS IN THE MOTHER LODE uncovers a long-neglected portion of Sam Clemens' life with a crucial turning point that made him famous. His transition from an obscure regional writer into a nationally known humorist is portrayed in this historical narrative and documentation of Twain's sojourn in the Mother Lode. Fletcher uncovers the story behind Twain's escape from a tense situation in San Francisco to an 88-day adventure that did not exactly suit his fancy, but inspired and launched his career, storytelling style, and literary influence.
