Sketches New and Old
By Mark Twain (1835-1910)

This collection of 63 writings by Mark Twain was
published in 1875. Among other sketches, it contains “The
Jumping Frog” in the original English, followed by a
French translation (read here by Caroline Sophie) which
Twain re-translated into English, showing how the French
translation of his work was “badly flawed.” In many of
these sketches, Twain shows his talent for outrageous
and hilarious inventiveness, often in reaction to current events. Snan by
John Greenman)

Total running time: 10:33:53; read by John Greenman. Dedicated Proof-Listener:
Shelagh. Meta-Coordinator/Cataloging: Laurie Anne Walden.
