Holbrook adapted Twain's own words for a commentary on slavery, religion and politics, mixing the satire with comic yarns about life on the Mississippi and a very effective ghost story.

| User ReviewKim KFull of silly, snappy, snarky snippets one comes to expect from Mr. Twain. Holbrook's portrayal of the satirical cynic is brilliant. Highly recommended to any fan of Mark Twain or acidic humor. |
| User ReviewBrandon TThis truly great entertainment. It truly blows my mind that this was on CBS back in the day. We sure don't have television like this anymore. Some of the wittiest entertainment I have seen in a long time. |
