From Richard Zacks, bestselling author of Island of Vice and The Pirate Hunter, a rich and lively account of how Mark Twain’s late-life adventures abroad helped him recover from financial disaster and family tragedy—and revived his world-class sense of humor
Mark Twain, the highest-paid writer in America in 1894, was also one of the nation’s worst investors. “There are two times in a man’s life when he should not speculate,” he wrote.

Chasing the Last Laugh: Mark Twain's Raucous and Redemptive Round-the-World Comedy Tour by Richard Zacks Book Review
Name: Glynn Young
Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars
Title: He stared financial ruin in the face and didn't blink
Date: Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2016
Review: The Panic of 1893 began with European banks worrying about a coup and wheat crop failure in Argentina. Within a very short period of time, the panic had spread to the United States, and a severe depression began. Stock prices collapsed, more than 500 U.S. banks closed, farms were abandoned, and more than 15,000 businesses failed. The effects didn’t occur overnight, but they happened fairly rapidly.
One of the businesses that eventually failed was the Charles Webster publishing firm. It was owned by Mark Twain. Twain desperately sought to keep the business afloat, while at the same time investing heavily in a linotype machine that would have brought a fortune had it worked. It didn’t. Twain and his family lost nearly everything and he was left heavily in debt, a debt his wife insisted that he pay.
As popular historian recounts in6” Chasing the Last Laugh: Mark Twain’s Raucous and Redemptive Round-the-World Comedy Tour,” Twain did the only thing he knew to do, the thing he had come to intensely dislike. He went on the lecture circuit. In fact, he went on the global lecture circuit.
The itinerary took Twain, his wife Livy, and their daughter Clara (two other daughters stayed in New York) first across the northern United States to Seattle, and by boat to the Pacific, Australia, New Zealand, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), India, South Africa, and then England. The trip took close to a full year: Twain spoke hundreds of times, occasionally to half-filled auditoriums but more often to houses so packed that extra engagements had to be scheduled.
The tour was a moneymaking event, to be sure, but it became something of a triumph for Twain the writer and speaker and Twain the man.
The tour has always been covered in other biographies, but not to the detail Zacks includes. And the story is in both the overview and the details – the overlay of late 19th century imperialism, the British Raj in India reaching its apogee, the stark realities of race in South Africa, the responses of the audiences, the specific stories Twain told at each of the performances, how the newspapers covered him and his stories, what played well, and what didn’t.
This could get tedious, but in Zacks’ hands it becomes rich and illuminating. He tells a wonderful story, pulling from the correspondence of Twain, the family, friends and relatives, and robber baron H.H. Rogers, who did more than anyone else (including Twain) to extricate the author from his legal and financial ordeals.
Zacks is the author of a number popular histories, including “History Laid Bare” (1995); “An Underground Education” (1999); “The Pirate Hunter” (2003); “The Pirate Coast” (2006); and “Island of Vice” (2012). He’s also been a freelance journalist, writing for such publications as The Atlantic and ESPN.
“Chasing the Last Laugh” is a fascinating account of a major American author who stared financial (and social) ruin in the face, and ultimately didn’t blink. And managed to entertain a lot of people along the way.

Title: The Samuel Langhorn Clemens behind the author Mark Twain
Date: Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2017
Review: The story line and personal aspects of this remarkable man are so expertly detailed that the reader will not only marvel at this rare glimpse into an author's mind and life but also the times in which he lived and wrote. On one hand is the depth and integrity Clemens displays and on the other is realizing this took place nearly a century and a quarter ago. To restore his honor, Clemens embarks on a journey not only at an age that even present day is reserved for retirement, but at a time when travel, accommodations, society and communications were far inferior in ease and safety to our present day world. The trek alone is enough to warrant praise, but the character that is revealed in this epic undertaking not only commands respect and awe, but also bespeaks the humanness and humility of an artist truly moved by his surroundings, his family and even his own views of himself. The book is well researched, balanced and insightful to the the Samuel Langhorn Clemens behind Mark Twain's ability to connect with others through his writing, words, life and deeds.

Date: Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2018
Review: I rarely write reviews for products purchased from Amazon, however, this book compels me to do so. Mr. Zacks presents us Twain at the height of his genius and celebrity but with character flaws, some of which lead to a mountain of debt that forces him to consider the shame of bankruptcy. Instead, the aging Twain strikes out to circle the globe as a stage performer in order to pay back his creditors and restore his honor. He is bucked up (if not forced to make the right decisions) along his journey by his wife, daughter, and a close friend -- a tycoon with Standard Oil! Mr. Zacks takes us through exotic locales (Ceylon and Tasmania to name but two), bizarre and hilarious situations, minor triumphs, heartbreaking tragedy, slap-your-thigh aphorisms, and ultimately redemption for Twain. Mr. Zacks gives us a simply delightful book; well-researched, well written, and highly entertaining. I e-mailed him to thank him.

Title: Quite Boring
Date: Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2016
Review: Well trying to slog through this book. I thought with the rave reviews, I would find it an interesting insight into Mark Twain's life and the world tour to pay off his debts. It is very detailed to every meeting, every nuance, every bad business transaction and investment several times over, every transatlantic trip and all letters written to his wife and other business partners and investors. If I were a Mark Twain enthusiast, this would be a fabulous book. I just wanted to read a story about the fun and frolic of him around the world. I don't need to know that his agent gets a 25% or a 33% cut on each booking with Mark Twain having to pay for all expenses, living, travel, meals. I don't need to know all the issues with a printing press that he felt was the rage when someone from out of no where had a better idea that made investors rich beyond rich. this was detailed throughout many chapters. All I want to read is about the travels and adventures, how the trip made him the man he was. I felt I was chasing any laugh and couldn't find it. It was not the book I thought it would be. Well written. You can tell the author is passionate about Mark Twain. I just wanted to be entertained in a Mark Twain way. Never happened.
