About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of 1601: Conversation as it was by the Social Fireside in the Time of the Tudors (Version 2), by Mark Twain. Read by John Greenman. Please note: this recording contains strong language. This is a recording of the complete "1601", including extensive analysis of the "historical record" of the short piece's creation and a short bibliography of known editions of the work. The introduction was written by Franklin Meine, editor of the American Peoples Encyclopedia . "1601" itself is a humorously risque work by Mark Twain, first published anonymously in 1880, and finally acknowledged by the author in 1906. (Summary by John Greenman & Wikipedia)
