Mark Twain travelled quite a lot. Usually financial circumstances forced him to. He was born in Florida in 1835, and moved to Hannibal, Missouri with his family when he was about four years old. Most people think he was born in Hannibal. But that isn’t true. After his father died when he was about twelve, Twain worked in Hannibal for a short time and then left, so that he could earn more money. He worked for a while as a typesetter. And then he got a job as a fiver pilot on the Mississippi.Twain loved this job and many of his books show it. The river job didn’t last, however, because of the outbreak of the Civil War. Twain was in the confederate army for just two weeks. And then he and his whole company went west to get away from the war and the army. In the west, he became a successful writer. Once that happened Twain travelled around the country giving lectures and earning enough money to go to Europe. Twain didn’t travel much in the last ten years of his life and he didn’t publish much. Like many other popular writers, Twain got much material for his writing from the wealth of his own experiences.
