He was not important at all. After the war he began to write under the pen name Mark Twain, and enjoyed wide popularity.

During the war he was like a great many other young men. He joined a southern unit in his home town, which had about a dozen members. He served about two weeks and then deserted, and took no further part in the war. He did write an interesting account of this time in the war later on. But of the three million or so who were in one army or another during the war, there were few who were less important than Sam Clemens.
