Made to Order at Juniper Custom in Boulder, Colorado

A raft on the Mississippi. A whitewashed fence. A riverboat pilot learning the moods of a great river. Mark Twain gave American literature its voice, wry and tender and irreverent all at once, and his characters have woven themselves into the fabric of the nation.

This set gathers his work in seven Library of America volumes, from the beloved novels to the travel writing and the tales, sketches and speeches that made him the most celebrated American writer of his age. The custom book jackets reproduce the artwork that graced the first edition of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It is a collection for the reader who loves Twain beyond the river, and a fitting centerpiece for an American library.
