Introducing Diversion Classics, an illustrated series that showcases great works of literature from the world's most beloved authors. Like its sequel, THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN, THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER is a timeless tale and a staple of American literature. Following Tom as he tricks unsuspecting townspeople and discovers dangerous secrets, this seminal story paints a picture of youth and adulthood on the Mississippi. Mark Twain’s sly humor and penchant for adventure shine through in this must-read American classic.

This book brings together the four Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn novels: The Adventures of Tom Sawer, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer Abroad and Tom Sawyer Detective by a famous American writer Mark Twain. "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" has been described as the first Great American Novel, Hemingway wrote: "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn." Huckleberry “Huck” Finn also narrates Tom Sawyer Abroad and Tom Sawyer, Detective, two shorter sequels to the first two books.

Tom Sawyer is an intelligent resourceful orphan who enjoys a life of freedom that is unsheltered from life's hardships. He is an immediately attractive character who draws the reader through his adventures. Huck Finn is more superstitious and naïve, but still an adventurous survivor. Together they engage with their world in this classic coming of age story. What makes these two books classics? Twain's characters are surprising, unforgettable and truly human. The dialog faithfully reproduces the common speech of his day. Twain explains, "In this book a number of dialects are used, to wit: the Missouri negro dialect; the extremest form of the backwoods Southwestern dialect; the ordinary 'Pike County' dialect; and four modified varieties of this last. The shadings have not been done in a haphazard fashion, or by guesswork; but painstakingly, and with the trustworthy guidance and support of personal familiarity with these several forms of speech." The plot combines adventure, suspense and mischief with the darker side of humanity: murder, deceit, brutality and racial prejudice. Twain's trademark humor and observations of human nature are never far. Hemingway concludes "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn . . . It is the best book we have." Features of this edition: Complete and unabridged Includes 335 original illustrations Crisp text set in modern easily read font.
