Mark Twain's Date . . 1601 - Paperback

by Mahlon Blaine (Author), Mark Twain (Author)

"Mark Twain's Date . . 1601 - Conversation, as it was by the Social Fireside in the Time of the Tudors" is a ribald satire written by the American humorist Mark Twain in 1876. Considered in its time near pornographic for it's vulgar comedy, it was privately printed for many years. Versions of the text were circulated long before the landmark obscenity cases of the late 50's and early to mid 60's allowed widespread publication of previously unprintable books. This version, though undated, is thought to have been originally published in the mid 1930's, and features artwork from Mahlon Blaine.
