Summary:
A seminal work of American Literature that still commands deep praise
and still elicits controversy, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is
essential to the understanding of the American soul. The recent
discovery of the first half of Twain's manuscript, long thought lost,
made front-page news. And this unprecedented edition, which contains
for the first time omitted episodes and other variations present in
the first half of the handwritten manuscript, as well as facsimile
reproductions of thirty manuscript pages, is indispensable to a full
understanding of the novel. The changes, deletions, and additions
made in the first half of the manuscript indicate that Mark Twain
frequently checked his impulse to write an even darker, more
confrontational book than the one he finally published.
