This beautiful hardcover collection brings together Mark Twain?s formative and most celebrated novels, presented with luxurious gold cover embossing and illustrated page edges. Twain?s novels are filled with humour, wit, and astounding insight into the world of the 19th-century United States. Written entirely in the vernacular, these classic satirical tales exposed the bigotry and hypocrisy of American life. The cheerful Tom Sawyer, the good natured Huck Finn, the independent Hank Morgan, and the well-meaning Tom Canty are quintessential Twain characters, full of life, verve, and a sense of justice they often felt was missing from the world around them.
