Lengthy letter by Mark Twain on Hawaii...

Item # 678562 ·

NEW YORK TRIBUNE, Jan. 6, 1873

  • Mark Twain - Samuel Clemens
  • Hawaiian - Sandwich Islands

Pages 4 and 5 contain an extremely lengthy--almost two full columns--under the heading: "THE SANDWICH ISLANDS - Schemes of Annexation" but mostly taken up with: "Views of Mark Twain" - A Characteristic Letter From; the Humorist, to the Editor of the Tribune". And what follows is Twain's very lengthy & descriptive letter, signed at its conclusion: Mark Twain. Since this letter was written to Horace Greeley, it is unlikely it appeared in any other newspaper.
Eight pages, a bit irregular at the spine from disbinding, small piece from an upper corner affecting noting, otherwise good condition.
