The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn
by Twain, Mark
Commonly named among the Great American novels, The Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn, written by Mark Twain, is generally regarded as the
sequel to his earlier novel, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; however, in
Huckleberry Finn, Twain focused increasingly on the institution of
slavery and the South. Narrated by Huckleberry “Huck” Finn in Southern
antebellum vernacular, the novel gives vivid descriptions of people and
daily life along the Mississippi River while following the adventure of
Huck and a runaway slave, Jim, rafting their way to freedom.
First Edition Identification and Notes
The Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn was first published on December 10, 1884 by Chatto &
Windus in London and by Dawson Brothers in Montreal.

Company, run by Twain’s nephew, Charles Webster, published the first American
edition of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in 1885. This version, which is
