4to, powder blue boards New edition of Twain's suppressed ribald classic. Illustrated by Alan Odle. "The late Mark Twain wrote a brochure called [1601] . I have never seen the work - not many people have - but a literary friend of mine used to quote appetizing extracts from it. Frankly, my life will seem to me incomplete unless some day I shall possess a copy of this book. I suspect Mark was a bit shy of it in later years - but who can doubt that it will live as long as anything of his?" - Michael Monahan.
