Tom Sawyer Abroad: By Huck Finn

by Mark Twain

Overview

"I have found out that there ain't no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them." -Mark Twain, Tom Sawyer Abroad (1894)

Tom Sawyer Abroad-by Huck Finn (1894) by Mark Twain was published ten years after Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and eighteen years after The Adventures of Tom Sawyer of which it is a sequel. Not as famous as either, but still an interesting story about Tom, Huck, and Jim traveling to Africa in a hot air balloon. This story is a nod to Jules Verne's adventure stories.

This jacketed hardcover replica of the original 1894 edition of Tom Sawyer Abroad, with illustrations by Daniel Beard, is an engaging addition to anyone's library.
