Paine. Mark Twain changed his mind about the worth of certain of these sketches and did not include them in later editions of his books. For this reason, the reader will here encounter sketches not to be found in the collected works. . . .""The present volume contains 136 sketches, thirty of them gathered from the five books of travel. The contents are arranged chronologically according to the years of first publication, and alphabetically within a given year whenever more than one item was published in that year. I have indicated the source of the sketches taken from the books of travel, and in such cases have given as the date of publication the date of the first edition of the particular book of travel,""
