463. Mark Twain's Introduction to "English As She Is Spoke"

I am of the opinion that anything which was intended by its creators to evoke emotion counts as art. By that measure, "English As She Is Spoke", although it is hilarious, doesn't make the cut. However, Mark Twain's beautifully written introduction expertly manages to both praise and mock the book.

If you want to read the book (and I strongly recommend that you do), you can find it here.

Happy April Fool's Day!
