Mark+Twain

Mark Twain's original name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. Samuel Clemens was born in He grew up in Hannibal, Missouri which then became settings for some of his books. He had a lot of different "hobbies" from being a typesetter to becoming to a master of riverboat master. When he was 11 his father died of pneumonia and the year after that he became a typesetter.

I think that he wrote a book like huckleberry finn because he wanted to show how much fun it was in Missouri and probably to emphasize the troubles he went and got into.
