Mark Twain...loved cats, compliments, and cigars, and no day would have been judged truly complete for him without a generous supply of all three.

America's favorite satirist was an avowed lover of all animals, including cats. Those four-legged friends appeared frequently in his correspondence and his fiction, excerpts from which are collected in this cat anthology of "true and imaginary adventures." Mark Twain for Cat Lovers celebrates beloved felines in forty delightful anecdotes, including "The Cat Who Conquered an Elephant" and "Discipline 'Don't Apply' to a Cat." Hardcover, 187 pages.
