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.
