- IBDoF blurb:
"Of all the contenders for the title of The Great American Novel, only the Great Gatsby has a better claim than The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. More than a century after its publication it remains a major and highly controversial work- facing repeated bans from school districts for language and its aggressively egalitarian themes. Enjoyable on many levels it is an incomparable adventure story and a classic of American humor. Most importantly though, it is the seminal work of social satire in American history and is scond only to the works of Jonathan Swift for social satire in the English language." -- The Egoist
