ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Willis, Resa, PUBLISHER: TV Books, Olivia Langdon Clemens was not only Samuel Clemens's wife and the mother of his children; she was Mark Twain's editor. She read and critiqued all his written work, and attended and commented on all his lectures and speeches. He relied on her judgment on his writing, and readily admitted that she not only edited his work but also "edited" his public persona. Until now, little has been known about the woman behind one of America's best-known writers. Mark and Livy brings us the full story of this remarkable courtship, marriage, and partnership that lasted forty years.
