Famous Authors (1835 -1910)

“That is just the way with some people. They get down on a thing when they don’t know nothing about it.” Mark Twain

From booksonthewall.com:
"Of Mark Twain’s 28 full-length books, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885) always stands out as his supreme achievement.

Beyond its importance as a classic boy’s adventure tale, this oft-challenged book raises significant questions about racism, religion, violence, right versus wrong, and the nature of freedom. As Huck, Jim, and the other characters go downriver, these questions become inescapable."
