Answer:

Immediately after becoming a deserter during the Civil War, where did Mark Twain went to the Nevada Territory.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Nevada that Twain experienced was in the middle of a mining boom. The Comstock Lode was a Nevada mining deposit that bough in a whopping $350 million from 1859 to 1879. Twain remained in the west for more than 5 years. In Lake Tahoe, he recaptured some of the magic of his childhood in Missouri; He floated in boats on Lake Tahoe much like he had on the Mississppi.

Hope this helps :D
