Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn - Everyman's Library Classics Series Reprint edition

Along with Blake and Dickens, Mark Twain was one of the nineteenth century?s greatest chroniclers of childhood. These two novels reveal different aspects of his genius: Tom Sawyer is a much-loved story about the sheer pleasure of being a boy; Huckleberry Finn, the book Hemingway said was the source of all the American fiction that followed it, is both a hilarious account of an incorrigible truant and a tremendous parable of innocence in conflict with the fallen adult world.
