Mark’s Twain’s 88 Days in the Mother Lode

Angels Camp, CA...Jim Fletcher, drawing from his current book, Mark’s Twain’s 88 Days in the Mother Lode & Stories from the Gold Rush, will delight visitors to Manzanita Arts Emporium during April with stories and insights about America’s foremost humorist whose story about a certain frog put Angels Camp and Calaveras County smack-dab in the middle of the national spotlight in the 1860s and catapulted its author to fame.

Mark_Twain_88_Days


An enthusiastic devotee of the Samuel Clemens/Mark Twain history and legend, Jim Fletcher presents the story of the eighty-eight days Mark Twain spent in the Mother Lode, his association with the Gillis brothers, and some of the legendary writer’s notes and excerpts from that time period. Fletcher’s book is rich with the adventures and misadventures that led up to Twain’s stay in the Gold Country, and his fruitful time spent gathering material in his “Notebook Four.”

These FREE “Twain Talks” (11 am to noon) with Jim Fletcher every Saturday in April will highlight stories about and by the man who did not hesitate to follow his own writing advice to “get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.”

Starting on Saturday, April 16 and regularly visiting on most Saturdays thereafter, Fletcher will give you the scoop. Manzanita Arts Emporium 1211 South Main Street, Angels Camp, CA 95222
