Mark Twain's Library Of Humor is a vintage 1906 anthology gathering humorous sketches, stories, and essays by multiple writers, including Mark Twain and a breadth of other notable contributors. The collection surveys travel misadventures, courtroom satire, social mores, marriage, philanthropy, and everyday folly through witty dialogues, mock speeches, parodies, and short tales. Its sections range from Mark Twain’s own travel humor to parlor-style satires, literary spoofs, and humorous reflections on manners, finance, and society. The volume is interspersed with illustrations and frontispieces, reflecting the turning-of-the-century American humor tradition. Though varied in voice and form, the pieces resonate with a shared aim: to entertain by lampooning pretensions, human foibles, and the absurdities of contemporary life, while offering a window into the humor and cultural satire of the period.
