5.0 out of 5 stars Mark Twain and Keillor, January 4, 2007

By	R. Poverman "computer geezer" (Manasquan, NJ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: A Visit to Mark Twain's House (Audio CD)

This is a neat live Keillor show that has you feeling as though you are in the Mark Twain house in Harford Connecticut. Very personal views of Twain with wonderful comparisons and observations by and of Keillor. Different than the usual Garrison Keillor Prairie Home Companion Show, a genuine trip into history with Keillor's usual irreverant flare for truth and comedy.
