THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN.
is felt by many critics to be the greatest of American novels. Ernest Hemingway said: "...all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn." Here is a rollicking story which evokes a period of romantic excitement and dangerous adventure along the mighty Mississippi River. It was a time and place Mark Twain knew well. His re-creation o f the riverboats, the country folk, the lynch mobs, the thieves and shysters, and particularly his creation o f Huckleberry Finn and the runaway slave Jim have made this book his masterpiece.
