Summary

"Roughing It, Part 4" by Mark Twain is about a wild journey through the American West, told with a humorous twist. Imagine a prospector stumbling into a chaotic inn during a flood, where a drunken bully named "Arkansas" is making everyone miserable, especially the poor landlord. The story follows a series of funny events and a showdown, where the landlord's wife steps in, bringing peace back to the inn. Then, as they attempt to flee, our group gets hilariously lost in the snowy wilderness trying to escape. It's a snapshot of the rough lifestyle of the time, filled with peculiar characters.
