Huck Finn

Mark Twain's Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn is an adventurous story of a young boy (Huck) who orphans himself from the average young man's life. This young man slips from the clutches of his drunken father and sets out for adventures of his own. In doing so, he meets with a fugitive slave named Jim.
