Real People, Real Stories: "Roughing It" In-Person

Real People/Real Stories explores the best in nonfiction history, biography, science, nature, and the arts.

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.
