Complete and unabridged. Two boys born the same hour in London, one in a palace and one in Offal Court, change clothes for a joke and cannot change back — and each learns the law of England from the wrong side. Twain wrote it while rich and settled in Hartford, and dedicated it to his two small daughters. The prince learns what his statutes do to people; the pauper learns what a crown is worth to the man wearing it. Its 177 original illustrations have been carefully restored and coloured for this edition.
