This month's read: Roughing It by Mark Twain
Mark Twain’s semi-autobiographical tale describes his adventurous stagecoach trip out west in the early 1860s. He engages in gold mining and land speculation and visits Utah, Nevada, California, and the Hawaiian Islands. The delightful writing and commentary on the land, the locals, and the wildlife make this book an American humor classic.
