A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain
The story of Hank Morgan, a nineteenth-century American who is accidentally returned to sixth-century England, is a powerful analysis of such issues as monarchy versus democracy and free will versus determinism, but it is also one of Twain's finest comic novels, still fresh and funny after more than 100 years. This edition reproduces more than 40 of Dan Beard's original drawings.
one of Mark Twain's best comic novels and is still funny more than a century after it first appeared * Oxford Times *
