Title: Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
Author: Mark Twain
ISBN: 9780375757808
Publisher: Modern Library
Published: 2001
Binding: Paperback
Language: English
Condition: Used: Very Good
Fiction 1639051
Publisher Description:
Hank Morgan awakens one morning to find he has been transported from nineteenth-century New England to sixth-century England and the reign of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Morgan brings to King Arthur's utopian court the ingenuity of the future, resulting in a culture clash that is at once satiric, anarchic, and darkly comic. Critically deemed one of Twain's finest and most caustic works, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court is both a delightfully entertaining story and a disturbing analysis of the efficacy of government, the benefits of progress, and the dissolution of social mores. It remains as powerful a work of fiction today as it was upon its first publication in 1889.
