Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was written by Mark Twain and first published in 1885. Considered one of the great American novels, it is written in the vernacular and told in the first person by Huckleberry (Huck) Finn, best friend of Mark Twain's other famous creation, Tom Sawyer. The story follows Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, as they drift down the Mississippi river on their raft. Through its depiction of the people and places along the mighty Mississippi, and Huck's adventures along the way, the novel has become a classic tale of escape and freedom.
