Mark Twain
Letters from Hawaii contains a collection of letters Mark Twain wrote for a newspaper publication - from a long, turbulent journey to the island to his encounters with the islanders and the myriad Englishmen who have taken up residence on the island. These letters are sure to be an entertaining and well-written account of the humorous encounters and scenic adventures that Twain experienced on his journey to Hawaii.

So is the unabridged version worth it? My guess is that it's only worth it if you're a Twain fan and you have qualms about saying you've "read" a book when you only listened to the abridged version.
As for Robin Field, I couldn't stand him at first. Primarily for the lip smacking (which thankfully abated after a few minutes). Having appreciated Grover Gardner's and Norman Dietz's manful Twain readings, I wasn't about to accept Field's interpretation of Twain's sly humor by affecting a sort of feigned geriatric absentmindedness (Twain was 31 when he wrote 'Letters' after all!) Now, all that said, sped up to 1.25x and after the lip smacking was over, I settled into the narration and didn't mind it all that much.
