Young Sam Clemens is a biography written by Cyril Clemens, the cousin of the famous American author and humorist Mark Twain, whose real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. The book tells the story of Sam Clemens' childhood and teenage years, before he became known as Mark Twain. The biography covers Sam's early life in the small town of Hannibal, Missouri, where he was born in 1835. It describes his family background, his education, and his early experiences working as a printer's apprentice and a steamboat pilot on the Mississippi River. The book also explores Sam's personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and romantic interests. It discusses his early writings, which were published in local newspapers and magazines, and his decision to adopt the pen name Mark Twain. Overall, Young Sam Clemens offers a fascinating glimpse into the formative years of one of America's most beloved authors. It provides a detailed portrait of the young man who would go on to write such classic works as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and become an icon of American literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
