Sobre este artículo
New York: Charles L. Webster, 1885. First American Edition. Publisher’s “library” (sheep binding with morocco labels). This is a typically mixed state copy with the following points: p. <13>, “Him and another man” incorrectly listed as at p.88; page 57, “..with the was...” as opposed to “...with the saw...”; the final “5” is lacking in the numbering of page 155. The title page is integral, not tipped in, and the infamous illustration is the later, cleaned-up version and the page is integral. The frontispiece of a Twain bust is in the second state, although this is entirely insignificant. Boards properly re-attached; very good.
Sinopsis
Commonly named among the Great American novels, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, written by Mark Twain, is generally regarded as the sequel to his earlier novel, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; however, in Huckleberry Finn, Twain focused increasingly on the institution of slavery and the South. Narrated by Huckleberry “Huck” Finn in Southern antebellum vernacular, the novel gives vivid descriptions of people and daily life along the Mississippi River while following the adventure of Huck and a runaway slave, Jim, rafting their way to freedom.
