Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Simon Wheeler, Detective I am deeply indebted to the late Mrs Clara Clemens Samossoud and the Mark Twain Estate for permission to publish this edition of Simon Wheeler, Detective. I am also indebted to the Harvard University Press for permission to quote extensively from the Mark Twain-Howells Letters (1960); any work, large or small, concerning itself with either Mark Twain or William Dean Howells and written since 1960 must owe a substantial debt to that collection. I am grateful to Harper & Row, Publishers, for permission to quote from Albert Bigelow Paine, Mark Twain, A Biography (1912) and to the Henry E. Huntington Library and Art Gallery for permission to quote from Mark Twain to Mrs. Fairbanks (1949). I wish to thank Mr Henry Nash Smith, editor of the Mark Twain Papers, who made available to me the resources of the Mark Twain Papers and generously offered any assistance I might need. For valuable aid in meeting various editorial problems, I wish to thank Mr Frederick Anderson, assistant to the editor of the Mark Twain Papers. Obviously, this work could not have been completed without the support and aid of the curator and the stall of the Henry W. and Albert A. Berg Collection, The New York Public Library. To Mr John D. Gordan, Curator, and to Mrs Lola L. Szladits, his assistant, I owe a substantial debt of gratitude. My friend and colleague Mr Frank M. Collins was kind enough to read carefully a draft of the introduction, to criticize freely, and to offer his suggestions for revision. Much of the strengthening of the final draft of the introduction is owing to him; the errors and weaknesses remain my own. My special thanks go to Mrs Mary Ann Rogers, who prepared the manuscript, aided in correcting copy and reading proof, and exhibited a considerable amount of patience with my inconsistencies and vagaries.
