Description
Captain Stormfield detailed about how he breathed his last some 30 years ago and started to become a bit worried. He talks about being swished and whirled across the breadth every so often, like a falling star. He was surprised upon encountering loads of fireballs coming his way but definitely not a single meteor hit him. Though, some of those touched his arms and the good thing was he did not feel anything because again, he is dead. Samuel Langhorne Clemens best known by his pseudonym Mark Twain, was a United States novelist, satirist, tradesman, publisher, and professor. A few of his popular stories are The Adventures of Tom Sawyer in 1876 and its series, the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in 1885, the second ofttimes known as “The Great American Novel”. Mark grew up in Hannibal, Missouri, which afterwards gave the context for Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. He became an assistant with a publisher and later employed as a typesetter, writing columns to the periodical of his elder brother Orion Clemens. He then became a riverboat navigator on the Mississippi River prior to going west to enlist at Orion in Nevada. He ascribed comically to his shortfall of popularity at mining, switching careers to newspaper writing for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. His funny tale, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County, was issued in 1865, founded on a fiction that he perceived at Angels Hotel in Angels Camp, California where he had expended certain years as a mine worker. The short tale got worldwide interest and was even interpreted into French. His intellect and humor, in literature and in communication, acquired commendation from reviewers and contemporaries, and he was a comrade to leaders, crafts persons, entrepreneurs and European crowned heads.
