I already love Mark Twain (of course), but this collection of his speeches before various groups makes him even more interesting than his writings do. I'm not sure I would want to pay him to speak to my group – he would likely insult us, as he did the well-bred New England descendants of Mayflower pilgrims. “Scathing” is a fun word, unless you are in the audience when it is being pointed at you. Clemens is amazing; read this and you will realize that even more than you already do.
