Twain’s third book, published in 1871, sends up the genre of autobiography, inventing ancestors such as saber-swinging Augustus Twain; John Morgan Twain, who came to America with Columbus; and wilderness adventurer Mighty-Hunter-With-Hog-Eye Twain. Also includes the spoof “First Romance,” an over-the-top medieval tale of court intrigue and impostors.
