"The difficulties of life in the wild west" - this is how you can describe the book "Ragged" by the American writer Mark Twain. This book is a kind of summer report of the author about his travels on the Western border. Twain leads readers into the exciting world of endless prairies, dangerous rivers and cowboy fun. He describes not only the beauty of wild nature, but also the encounters and adventures that befell him in these distant lands. Mark Twain gives the reader the opportunity to look into the atmosphere of life during the Gold Rush, to dig in the goldfields and feel the wild spirit of the pioneers who were looking for happiness and adventure in the American West. In "Ragged" Twain tells not only about his own impressions from the campaigns, but also creates a picturesque portrait of the American West of the 19th century. Children will also learn about the life of deaf-mute author Laura Bridgman and the author's meetings with celebrated activists and politicians of his time.
