Description

This vintage book contains Mark Twain's 1894 novel, "Pudd'nhead Wilson". Set in a fictional Missouri town called 'Dawson's Landing', the novel centres around Roxy, a slave who, to prevent her son having to live a life of servitude, switches him for her master's son of the same age. "Pudd'nhead Wilson" was originally serialised in 'The Century Magazine' (1893), and was later published as a novel. This enthralling and thought-provoking work is highly recommended for those who have read and enjoyed other texts by Mark Twain. It would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835 - 1910), better known by his pseudonym, Mark Twain, was a seminal American writer and humourist. Many antiquarian books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
