In this section, Twain is in Virginia, Nevada, working at a newspaper in a silver mining boom town. Then he goes to San Francisco just to see the sights, and, through an unfortunate happenstance, winds up staying. As you can see, the book I am reading is a beautifully illustrated hardback. But that is also why I am only reading 100 pages at a time--it is heavy to lug around!
Now I am reading Mindbend by Robin Cook. Already a doctor has killed his wife and himself and a med student is becoming violent, both against their normal nature. There is an overtone of using aborted fetuses for some unknown purpose. I have no idea how I have missed this book in my reading, but I have...until now.
