While Mark Twain lent his name to several classic works of literature, few are as known as this one. Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was first published in the United States in 1884 and was one of the first in major literature to be written throughout in vernacular English. It remains one of the most important and controversial works in the history of American literature. This edition is built to last for generations, bound in black leather and finished by hand with the title and author's name embossed on the cover.
