Jumping frogs, high society, San Franciscos Emperor Norton and the stray dogs that followed on his heelsnothing escaped Mark Twain's scrutiny or his acerbic wit. Bernard Taper has gathered together a heady selection of newspaper articles, correspondence, poetry, and short stories that are humorous sometimes exasperating and controversial but always engaging. Edward Jump, a contemporary of Twains, offers through his lively illustrations a visual drum roll to Twains cantankerous prose. From earthquakes, scandals, and tantalizing bonanzas to elegant ladies blowing their noses in exquisitely modulated tones, Mark Twain has left us a vision of San Francisco that is at once fascinating and hilariously familiar.
