Entertaining
Loved the snippets from several stories and the narrators. Such a great variety. Left me wanting more.

I am not sure what I was expecting from this collection, but I listened to it with mixed feelings. The opening CD dealing with Life on the Mississippi was probably the dullest listening. It was fun to hear the material read by Will Gere and Walter Brennan. Some of the language is dated and some of the humor is slow developing, but other times the Twain's clever language made me laugh out loud. It was an OK addition to my collection.

Not what I expected
The stories were not interesting to me, very boring and drawn out. Nothing like his famous works.

Mark Twain and his life
Nothing beats Mark Twain. He was the consummate story-teller. His choice of words alone can expand your vocabulary, if nothing else. Twain was one of America's greatest writers because he wrote about his life-experiences in a vernacular that gives us insight to his era.
