Set by the Mississippi River in the 1840's, it follows these boys as they get into predicament after predicament. Tom's classic whitewashing of the fence has become part of American legend, and the book paints a nostalgic picture of life in the middle of the nineteenth century. Tom runs away from home to an island in the river, chases Injun Joe and his treasure, and even gets trapped in a cave for days with Becky Thatcher. The book is one of Twain's most beloved stories. This is the first bibliography in its field, based on firsthand collations of the actual titles. Over 3500 detailed entries provide an invaluable guide for theatre students, practitioners and historians. First published in 2000. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
