The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Mark Twain

CreateSpace, 2008

Great book! When addressing controversy think of context.
I can't say more on the plot because it's quite obvious what the plot is just from illustrations of the novel. But on the "controversial" aspect of the novel involving the excessive use of the N word, people have to think of the time period that Twain is writing about ...
  
  











  



  
Great American Stories: Ten Unabridged Classics
Stephen Crane, Ambrose Bierce, ...

BBC Audiobooks America, 2003

Successful Gift

Letters From The Earth
Mark Twain

NuVision Publications, 2008

Hilarious and Insightful
Letters from the Earth / 0-06-092105-6 Whatever else may be said about Twain, it cannot be denied that the man had a biting satirical sense of the foolish and he displays his wit most superbly in this posthumous collection of his musings. The religious ...
  
  











  



  
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Public Domain, 2007

A True Classic
I am enjoying reading this classic to my son. I read it years ago. By reading this story to him, I am finding myself excited and ready to take on a new adventure. The price is unbelievable, too.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Puffin Classics)
Mark Twain

Puffin, 2008

Mark Twain's Classic, if Problematic, Adventure Tale
My daughter's fourth-grade reading teacher urged that parents continue the practice of reading to their children, and specifically recommended ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN. It had been some 35-40 years since I had read the work myself, and so I relished the ...
  
  











  



  
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Signet Classics)
Mark Twain

Signet Classics, 2002

Nietzsche's choice
In a letter to his friend Franz Overbeck dated 14, November, 1879, Nietzsche says, "If you do not know the latest book by Twain, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, it would be a pleasure for me to make you a little present of it." Both novels define the picturesque ...
  
  











  



  
Joan of Arc
Mark Twain

Ignatius Press, 1989

Beautiful and haunting
How amazing it is to find the usually sardonic, faithless Twain so moved to write a work as glorifying, uplifting and devoted as this novel! In fact, I read this book just to find out what Twain's angle might be. There is no angle, no slant to the story. It is told ...

Travel through the Old West
The Virginian (Signet Classics) The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin When I was reseachering The Shopkeeper, I found two books especially valuable; The Virginian by Owen Wister, and and Roughing it by Mark Twain. Both were written by men who had actually ...

Mark Twain

Library of America, 1982

Great edition
I doubt that anyone reading these reviews is trying to decide whether or not they will enjoy reading the stories in this volume - most likely they've read them already and want to know if this is an edition worth buying. This is definitely worth buying. The printing ...

Complete Short Stories of Mark Twain (Bantam Classics)
Mark Twain

Bantam Classics, 1984

Easy to see why Twain is one of America's Classics

The Autobiography of Mark Twain (Perennial Classics)
Mark Twain

Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2000

The Hobo Philosopher
I read a lot of autobiographies and biographies and they are often praised extensively and turn out to be very, very boring. This autobiography is great. Mark Twain writes it from the point of view that he is already dead and therefore can say whatever he likes. Of ...
