Roughing It relays the escapades of Mark Twain as he traversed the American West over a six-year period. Blending the natural with the supernatural, Twain trades off between personal anecdotes and tall tales, using what he calls the West’s “vigorous new vernacular;” his account is informative as well as humorous.
