The Visitor Experience at the Mark Twain House

by Stephanie C. Fox

Overview

This book contains a tour that I gave as a historic interpreter at the Mark Twain House in Hartford, Connecticut. It takes the readers from the front lawn to the porch to the hall, then goes room by room throughout the author's family home, telling the story of the wonderful life they all lived in a house that felt alive to them for seventeen years.

I did this for several years, and it enabled me to learn all about the author and his family, and to read many of his works. It also led me to meet many fascinating and fun members of the public as I showed them around and told them hilarious, uproarious tales of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, a.k.a. Mark Twain, in the manner of a stand-up comic. They loved it, as did I.

Many of these visitors made a wonderful remark to me at the conclusion of tour after tour after tour: "That was the best tour I have ever had anywhere. I wish I could buy a copy of it. You should write your tour down, as is." So, I did.
