Mark Twain's America Audiobook

" I was expecting to find curmudgeonly skepticism but I was saddened and disappointed to learn that Sam Clemens was quite antisemitic. "

" Very witty. If you like satire, this book is for you. Curious would probably be the best word to describe it. "

" No wonder he didn't want this published during his lifetime. "

" a funny compilation of twain's irreverant satire "

" Presents a different outlook! "

" I've tried to read this but enough! The start of it is awfully boring Notes on the texts and Twain's writings aren't as good as I expected. However I did give up at page 57 maybe it gets better but I don't care anymore to find out. "

" Should be required reading for Christians, Jews, Atheists, and Agnostics alike...Great Great stuff "

" required reading for every southerner who wants to truly know god... my all-time favorite line ever written was taken from this book. an inscription on eve's gravestone: "wheresoever she dwelt, there was eden." a master at his prime. "

" I think Mark should have left the Bible to its original authors "

" This book is worth reading every couple of years for any Mark Twain fan. He compiles the best of his humor and satirical writing. You can't read one page without laughing out loud. "

" A book I return to, but always disappointingly so. Twain's questioning of Christian stupidity is always healthy and useful; this is over-reaching but worth the look. "

" This book makes you think. These writings were too controversial to be published in his own time. "

" Interesting look at heaven and creation story--humorous at points but not really 'biblical' (didn't read all of 'letters from earth' which is much darker and frank with Twain's frustration with the Bible) "

" There were some wonderfully witty and insightful moments sandwiched between some less than amusing pieces. Unfortunately, the witty came less often that I would have hoped. "

" HILARIOUS. I can't say enough about Twain-- his insights are right on the money, and he dissects things in a way I personally had never thought about, but makes so much sense immidietly upon hearing them. "

" I tried, but I couldn't finish this book. I guess I'm just not a fan of Twain's sense of humor, although in theory I do appreciate his blasphemous fun-poking at the Bible. "

" This book is fascinating. If you like Twain you will love this book that Dr. McCullough has put together. "

" Twain is excellent. I did not like the way this book was compiled and formatted. "

" Pretty much the most clear-headed opinion on Biblical matters I've ever read. "

" Worth getting for The Diaries of Adam and Eve, Letters from Earth, and a couple other stories, but most of the book is of interest only to people doing a very in depth study of his writing. "
