A short summary of Roughing It:
The biography of a riverman in the Wild Wild West.
My favorite Mark Twain quote from the book:
"If you are of any account, stay at home and make your way by faithful diligence; but if you are "no account" go away from home, and then you will *have* to work"
Questions to ponder while reading Roughing It:
Do you live close to home?
Do you prefer the glitter or the gold?
My review of Roughing It:
An entertaining read.
Lots of surprising info.
Twain lived.
