The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, 135th Anniversary Edition. Марк Твен

Аннотация:

This is&#160;Mark Twain&#39;s first novel about Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, and it has become one of the world&#39;s best-loved books. It is a fond reminiscence of life in Hannibal, Missouri, an evocation of Mark Twain&#39;s own boyhood along the banks of the Mississippi during the 1840s. &quot;Most of the adventures recorded in this book really occurred,&quot; he tells us. The Mark Twain Library edition contains the only text since the first edition (1876) to be based directly on the author&#39;s manuscript and to include all of the &quot;200 rattling pictures&#39; Mark Twain commissioned from one of his favorite illustrators, True W. Williams. This landmark anniversary edition contains a selection of original documents by Mark Twain, including several letters in his inimitable voice about writing <I>Tom Sawyer</I> and about its original publication.<BR /> &#160;
