About this listen

If you are less than fond of telemarketing phone calls, door-to-door salesmen, and email spam, then you have something in common with beloved humorist Mark Twain. In this story, he encounters a "Canvasser" (essentially a door-to-door huckster). The man's story is compelling and it is only at the end that Twain connects the dots, but by then he's in line to buy something he doesn't need.

Narrated by Glenn Hascall.
