Mark Twain

Mark Twain (1835-1910), given name Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was an American author and humorist.

Description
In Martian Dreams, Mark Twain was transported to Mars in the accidental launch of Percival Lowell's space bullet at its exhibition at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Some time during his stay on Mars, Mark Twain came in contact with the Dream Machine of Elysium, and was trapped in the Dream World while the Martian Sisik inhabited his body.

Mark Twain was freed from his nightmare in the Dream World, in which 25 pages of his manuscript became scattered across the shoals of an imaginary Mississippi River by the winds of time. The Avatar, piloting a riverboat, was able to collect all 25 pages, and then mail them to Mark Twain's publisher in New York. Upon being restored to the physical world, Mark Twain told the hero about his adventures as a journalist and some of his literary achievements.

With the creation of mechanical bodies for the Martians, Mark Twain returned to Earth on Andrew Carnegie's rocket.
