What Is Man? and Other Essays showcases Twain at his most insightful and provocative. Brimming with philosophical candor and sparkling with humor, it features "What Is Man?," a conversation that explores free will and morality, and includes poignant autobiographical accounts ("The Death of Jean," "The Turning Point in My Life"), hilarious personal narratives ("Taming the Bicycle," "At the Shrine of St. Wagner"), along with journalism, criticism, and satirical essays. This Warbler Classics edition faithfully reproduces thirty-four playful drawings by Mark Twain that illustrate "How to Make History Dates Stick," "A Simplified Alphabet," and "As Concerns Interpreting the Deity." Also included is "Mark Twain's Americanism" by H. L. Mencken and an extensive biographical timeline of Twain's life and work. Expansive, thoughtful, irreverent, and enormously entertaining, What Is Man? and Other Essays is essential reading for Twain enthusiasts and lovers of American literature.
