Tell us what's wrong and we'll take a look.
Thanks – we got it. We'll review and follow up if needed.
Chafed by the sivilized restrictions of his foster home, and weary of his drunkard father's brutality, 14 year-old Huck Finn fakes his own death and sets off on a raft down the Mississippi River. He is soon joined by Jim, an escaped slave. Together, they experience a series of rollicking adventures that have amused readers, young and old, for over a century. The fugitives become close friends as they weather storms together aboard the raft and spend idyllic days swimming, frying catfish suppers, and enjoying their independence.
Michael B. Frank and Harriet Elinor Smith are both members of the Mark Twain Project of The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley.
