Mark Twain’s Great American Novel reunites us with the newly-rich Huckleberry ‘Huck’ Finn. Fleeing his Missouri town to evade his drunk father, Huck teams up with Jim, a slave who is also on the run.

Through their adventures in the Midwestern US of the 1830s or 40s, the novel powerfully blends humour with an exploration of race and identity that has made it one of the most celebrated books of its time.

Apostrophe’s beautifully crafted ebook classics will please fans of old and new media alike.” – Dr Matthew Rubery, BA (Texas) PhD (Harvard), Reader in 19th-Century Literature.

 

A SNEAK PEEK INSIDE:

“You don’t know about me, without you have read a book by the name of “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,” but that ain’t no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth. That is nothing. I never seen anybody but lied one time or another, without it was Aunt Polly, or the widow, or maybe Mary. Aunt Polly—Tom’s Aunt Polly, she is—and Mary, and the Widow Douglas is all told about in that book, which is mostly a true book, with some stretchers, as I said before.”
