About This Item
Fort Worth, TX: Holt, Rinehart & Winston, 1980. Reprint . Soft Cover/Flexible Linen. Good/None as Issued. Text/Strong w/sporadic underlining to pages 145 -173. Flexible linen softcover/VG w/trace edge & surface wear. Notes to rear endpaper. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835 - 1910), better known by his pen name, Mark Twain, was first published in UK 1884, and in the US the following year. This beloved novel is narrated in the vernacular. Huck, 13 years old, hails from Missouri on the banks of the Mississippi. Son of an abusive town-drunk, he is taken in by a certain Miss. Watson, and escapes that setting with his pal Jim, Miss Watson's African-American slave. An odyssey; a boy's book --- in which God is largely benign but also indifferent; the Mississippi, also devine, extends hospitaltity to all those who flow with it. Of well meaning adults encountered, are many devoted to "civilizing" with Christian zeal. Huck & Jim on the raft form a community often beset by pride. 274 pgs in 42 episodes.
