520 1 $a"Before Mark Twain became a national celebrity, he was just another struggling writer perfecting his craft - but already "playin' hell" with the world. Tracing the arc of Clemens's career from self-described "unsanctified newspaper reporter" to national author between 1862 and 1867, Caron reexamines the early and largely neglected writings - especially the travel letters from Hawaii and the letters chronicling Clemens's trip from California to New York City."--BOOK JACKET.
