`I`ve struck it!` Mark Twain wrote in a 1904 letter to a friend. `And I will give it away―to you. You will never know how much enjoyment you have lost until you get to dictating your autobiography.` Thus, after dozens of false starts and hundreds of pages, Twain embarked on his `Final (and Right) Plan` for telling the story of his life. His innovative notion―to `talk only about the thing which interests you for the moment`―meant that his thoughts could range freely. The strict instruction that many of these texts remain unpublished for 100 years meant that when they came out, he would be `dead, and unaware, and indifferent,` and that he was therefore free to speak his `whole frank mind.` The year 2010 marks the 100th anniversary of Twain`s death. In celebration of this important milestone and in honor of the cherished tradition of publishing Mark Twain`s works, UC Press is proud to offer for the first time Mark Twain`s uncensored autobiography in its entirety and exactly as he left it. This major literary event brings to readers, admirers, and scholars the first of three volumes and presents Mark Twain`s authentic and unsuppressed voice, brimming with humor, ideas, and opinions, and speaking clearly from the grave as he intended.

Mark Twain’s complete, uncensored Autobiography was an instant bestseller when the first volume was published in 2010, on the centennial of the author’s death, as he requested. Published to rave reviews, the Autobiography was hailed as the capstone of Twain’s career. It captures his authentic and unsuppressed voice, speaking clearly from the grave and brimming with humor, ideas, and opinions.
The eagerly-awaited Volume 2 delves deeper into Mark Twain’s life, uncovering the many roles he played in his private and public worlds. Filled with his characteristic blend of humor and ire, the narrative ranges effortlessly across the contemporary scene. He shares his views on writing and speaking, his preoccupation with money, and his contempt for the politics and politicians of his day. Affectionate and scathing by turns, his intractable curiosity and candor are everywhere on view.
