Product Description

This very funny novel about a mischievous orphan boy deals with the escapades of youth, yet its underlying moral element gives it the frame and distinction of "art." Hemingway said that this book marked the beginning of American literature.

Customer Reviews

A good basic resource
I think this is probably best for people that need basic info. For the person that needs to write an indepth paper or do indepth research this is probably not the choice for you. It's a good basic tool for the beginner though.

Perfect help for English literature
The writing style of Mark Twain is hard to understand - especially for a German student in the US. so this book was a very good help!
