A young boy and a runaway slave embark on a journey down the Mississippi River, exploring freedom and morality.
With over 130 illustrations. Mark Twains classic tale concerns young Huckleberry Finn who runs away from home. He teams up first with Jim, a runaway slave and then later in the story, comes across the 'Duke', the 'Dauphin', the Grangerfords and the Wilks'. Banned for crudeness by several libraries upon its publication, it is still seen as controversial because of the apparent racism within the book.
