These witty and whimsical diaries reflect both Twain's belief in women's equality and his irreverent views of conventional religion. Originally published as separate volumes at the turn of the century, this compilation is an ingenious, witty and ultimately delightful retelling of the dawn of human creation with many a grain of truth for today's gender disputes. This paperback version is complete with the original illustrations by F.Strothmann in Extracts from Adam's Diary along with Lester Ralph's exquisite line drawings accompanying Eve's Diary. Paperback, 199 pages.
