The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is often considered Twain's greatest masterpiece. Combining his raw humor and startlingly mature material. Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is the sequel to The Adventures of Tom Saywer. It is a biting satire of American South romanticism and a poignant portray of the pre-Civil War American society as the often naive but always perceptive perspective of Huckleberry Finn questions preconceived ideas and accepted prejudices. Twain developed a novel that directly attacked many of the traditions the South held dear at the time of its publication. Huckleberry Finn is the main character, and through his eyes, the reader sees and judges the South, its faults, and its redeeming qualities. As Huck navigates the Mississippi River by raft with his close companion, the runaway slave Jim, Huck confronts issues relating to the value of human life and friendship. At the end of his journey down the Mississippi River, he and the runaway slave Jim arrive at the epitome of the American dream: freedom UNABRIDGED - ORIGINAL STORY

"Now listen to what an old man tells you. My best book is my Recollections of Joan of Arc. ...it furnished me seven times the pleasure afforded me by any of the others; twelve years of preparation, and two years of writing. The others needed no preparation and got none." -Mark TwainJudged by the standards of one century, the noblest characters of an earlier one lose much of their luster. Judged by the standards of today, there are not many from five or six centuries ago whose character stands the test of time. But the character of Joan of Arc is unique. It can be measured against all time without misgiving. It is flawless. It is ideally perfect. It occupies the loftiest place possible to human attainment. Joan of Arc, a peasant girl in 15th century France, rose up to hold supreme command of the military forces of France at the age of seventeen. Inspired by visions and voices of angels, Joan led French troops to lift the siege of Orl ans ensuring Charles VII was crowned King of France in 1429. Twain traveled to France's National Archives to personally study the transcripts of Joan's trial. Immerse yourself in her story, told by one of America's finest writers. Illustrated with original drawings by F. V. du Mond, and from reproductions of old paintings and statues.

Mark Twain’s wit and wisdom is timeless—his observations on Hawaii, some of which formed part of the classic Roughing It are collected here in an authoritative and entertaining volume for Twain fans and Hawaii enthusiasts.
