A California Frog Story Returns with Mark Twain Live, June 17th
    Victorville, CA - "Mark Twain Live!", presented through the considerable talents of Mike Randall, returns from New York
to talk about a California frog during Huck Finn’s 35th  Jubilee, Friday, June 17th at 9:00 p.m.

    Mark Twain may be best remembered for his classic novel Adventures Of  Huckleberry Finn first published in 1885. That book, jammed packed with controversial themes and memorable characters is considered the author’s greatest achievement. Ernest Hemmingway said of  Huck Finn – “it was the one book from which all modern American literature came.” The truth is that the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn may never have been written if its author had not first found a frog in Calaveras County, California! Interestingly, Calaveras is just a few counties away from Victorville where we celebrate
The Huck Finn Jubilee each summer on Father’s Day weekend.
