An American legend rewrites a remarkably contemporary Adam and Eve. In tackling the first three chapters of Genesis, Twain creates a story of The First Couple who are psychologically familiar to even 21st Century Americans. He wrote the Diaries as a tribute to his own marriage, so they are also his most heartfelt and personal work. Between 1893 and 1906, he attempted six versions; only "Adam's Diary" and "Eve's Diary" satisfied him and were published in his lifetime. This expanded edition is * beautifully illustrated * faithful to Twain's final rewrites * faithful to Twain's's wish that the two tales be "bound together" * and includes passages published for the first time. .
