Roughing It

Más información sobre el libro

Set against the backdrop of the American West during the 1860s, this memoir captures Twain's journey from Missouri to Nevada, and beyond to San Francisco and Hawaii. With his signature humor and regional dialect, he offers a vivid portrayal of the frontier, challenging its romanticized image. The narrative includes amusing anecdotes about encounters with Mormons, Native Americans, and the mining boom. As a semi-autobiographical account, it serves as both a travelogue and a reflection on Twain's experiences in a rapidly changing America.
