What happens when a practical nineteenth-century American suddenly wakes up in the age of King Arthur?
Mark Twain combines adventure, comedy, fantasy, and sharp social satire in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. After an unexpected turn of events, Hank Morgan finds himself transported from industrial America to medieval England, where superstition, monarchy, knights, and ancient customs rule everyday life.
Armed with modern knowledge and an inventive mind, Hank attempts to reshape the world around him. The result is a story filled with absurd situations, clever observations, ambitious experiments, and increasingly complex clashes between modern ideas and medieval society.
First published in 1889, Twain's novel remains a distinctive blend of time-travel fiction and social commentary, examining technology, political power, class, progress, and human nature with his unmistakable wit.
Enter Camelot through the imagination of Mark Twain and experience one of literature's most unusual adventures.
