Drawing on original sources, Hoffman reveals how the tragic early deaths of Clemens's father and siblings left him with feelings of guilt throughout his formative years. This volume also examines Clemens's turbulent marriage, explores the care with which he crafted Mark Twain, and describes the ambivalence he felt towards his more famous persona.
