This is a slideshow created with Imagination. The images are all from the Gutenberg Project edition with corresponds with the Oxford Mark Twain. Imagination allows the use of empty slides between images. I'm utilizing them here rather than filling the spaces with various Twain portraits.




A Gauntlet of Photographers

I bent my head, and seemed to receive the Atlantic on my back.

I came upon a noble Son of the Forest sitting under a tree,

I came upon a gentle daughter of the aborigines

Of course I got into the eddy. I sailed round and round in it forty-four times

So Pay a Quarter and Watch the Show, eh?
