Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was a man who transformed his observations of life into timeless stories and sharp-witted humor. Born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri, he came into the world just as Halley's Comet streaked across the skies-a cosmic event that would eerily bookmark both his birth and his death 74 years later. Twain spent his formative years in the bustling river town of Hannibal, Missouri, a place that left an indelible mark on his imagination. The Mississippi River flowed through the heart of his boyhood adventures and later served as the lifeblood of his most celebrated works. Hannibal became the fictional St. Petersburg in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, where readers joined Tom, Huck, and their friends in mischief and profound moments of human connection. Twain's early life was marked by a restless curiosity. He apprenticed with a printer, learned the trade of typesetting, and began contributing articles to his older brother Orion's newspaper. However, the call of the mighty Mississippi proved irresistible, and Twain embarked on a career as a riverboat pilot. Navigating the river's complexities inspired his memoir, Life on the Mississippi (1883), a rich tapestry of river lore and personal anecdotes.
