"The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" retells a story Twain heard from a bartender in the City of Angels, California, about the hopeless gambler and con artist Jim Smiley told by Simon Wheeler, "a fat and bald-headed man".Upon discovering a copy of this story translated into French, Twain translated it, word-for-word, back into English, keeping the French grammar structure, ending it with a note "thus is my story, the distorted French eye."
