| The Adventures of Tom Sawyer |

But underneath the childhood innocence lies the harsh adult realities of racism, superstitions, murder and revenge. An American Classic. |

The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson is a detective story that explores these issues in a time before the American Civil War in a Missouri town along the Mississippi River. Complex. Compelling. Classic. |
