| Summary | "Mark Twain: A Biography. Volume III, Part 1: 1900-1907" by Albert Bigelow Paine is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume details the latter years of the iconic American author and humorist Mark Twain, focusing on his return to America after a period of personal and financial challenges. The narrative captures various significant events during Twain's life, including the immense public reaction to his return and the introspection on his past experiences. At the start of this biography, the reader finds Twain heralded as a triumph after his arduous financial battles, described as a "conquering hero" upon his return to New York. There’s an exploration of Twain's struggles with sorrow and recovery, including the death of his friend Charles Dudley Warner shortly after Twain's homecoming. He seeks a new residence to avoid painful memories tied to his former home in Hartford. The text delves into Twain's interactions with public life, including social engagements, political discussions, and moments of reflection on his position as a notable figure within American culture. This opening portion sets a tone of reverence for Twain while also spotlighting his deeper, often more serious reflections on society and his own legacy.
