关于此电子书

"Roughing It" was one of the several works written by Mark Twain in his lifetime and was published in 1872. This work is a powerful and revealing autobiography in which Twain narrates his journey through the American West, offering an intimate and profound view of his life and the conditions faced during this adventurous period. Over time, various biographies have been written and continue to be written about this iconic author and humorist, with increasing quality and scope. However, to understand the thoughts and character of a real person, there is nothing better than hearing the story with all its circumstances, mistakes, and successes told by the one who lived it firsthand. This is the purpose of Mark Twain's autobiography: to bring to the public the determined and visionary man who, through his perseverance and wit, became one of the most influential figures in American literature. This work is part of the "Voices of America" collection, which aims to highlight the life stories of important figures in American history, told by themselves.
