retroj | 29 comments The record for the new "Autobiography of Mark Twain, volume 1", gives the original publication date as 1924. I believe this is in error. The 1924 date refers to another book, "Mark Twain's Autobiography", edited by Albert Bigelow Paine, which drew on the same source material, but was less of it, arranged in a different order, and differently edited. Goodreads has at least one page for that book, and it appears to be incorrectly linked to this new 2010 autobiography.

Information about the Paine autobiography can be found in the introduction to the new one.
