MARK TWAIN IS ONE OF OUR NATION'S DEFINING CULTURAL FIGURES.

The Mark Twain House & Museum has restored the author’s Hartford, Connecticut,
home, where the author and his family lived from 1874 to 1891. Twain wrote his
most important works during the years he lived there, including Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and A Connecticut Yankee in King
Arthur’s Court. In addition to providing tours of Twain’s restored home, a
National Historic Landmark, the institution offers activities and educational
programs that illuminate Twain’s literary legacy and provide information about
his life and times.
