The sad thing is that it looks like the autobiography has been available for researchers all this time.  So it's not some big secret the estate has been sitting on.  Every Twain biographer has read it and stolen from it for their own work.

Yay!

Arriving in stores on September 28 from Thomas Dunne Books is the English-translated "Handling the Undead", a zombie tale from Swedish author John Ajvide Lindqvist. Best known for penning "Let the Right One In", "Undead" begins in Stockholm where the power grid has gone crazy. In the morgue and in cemeteries, the recently deceased are waking up. One grandfather is alight with hope that his grandson will be returned, but one husband is aghast at what his adored wife has become. Bloody Disgusting Ryan Daley has posted his review of the book, which can be found inside.

Missus RC and I realized this has been the year of Teddy Roosevelt for us. Any good Teddy biography recommendations?

Edmund Morris leads the pack.

Oh, there's a trilogy by Morris. I assume they should be read in this order: Rise, Colonel, then Rex?

Unless you want the Benjamin Button version, yes.
