Mark Twain: America's First Blogger

In her Los Angeles Times review of The Autobiography of Mark Twain, Volume 1, Laura Skandera Trombley calls Twain "America's first blogger."

Trombley bestows that title to Twain because she sees his autobiography as "a freewheeling record of his thoughts, unrestricted and unfiltered except by the King - himself."

The Autobiography of Mark Twain, Volume 1 will be published on Twain's birthday, November 30th.
