One of my prized possessions is a first edition of Tramp Abroad, published and illustrated by him and "friends" in West Hartford, CT.

Also, I never tired of taking visiting friends and family for a tour of his house in the same city. It is magnificent and comfy. They even have the billiard table which he used to play on whilst composing articles, etc. in his head. Take the Virtual Tour for an idea of how wonderful the house is...right next door is Harriet Beecher-Stowe's house.
