A Lifetime with Mark Twain: The Memories of Katy Leary, for Thirty Years His Faithful and Devoted Servant

by Mary Lawton (Contributor)

The memories of Katy Leary, for thirty years his faithful and devoted servant. The book is a transcription of a rambling informal account by Katy Leary of her thirty years' service in the Clemens household. Mark Twain suggested that the faithful Kate tell the world all she knew about him. At the urging of Miss Lawton, and with her assistance, Katy Leary, now an old lady who lives entirely in the past, made this thick book.
